Ties

Blood is thicker than water
But gold is densest
So goodbye mom, goodbye dad
So long sister, so long brother
Take care baby,
You, too, doggie
I’ll leave you all
With a promise to fulfill
Of finding a job
In the richest land
To earn our fortune
So I could send you the money
To shoulder the expenses
And the payments of our debts
Then you’d all be proud of me
When I return a stiff body.
