Crazy little child

Never got to see

All the pretty things in life

Had him put away

Nothing they could say

Could ever make the pieces fit

Aw well, Daddy-o was rich

Mama was a bitch

Living wasn't easy in between

Behind his silent scream
Dm
Jackson, in his teens
A# A Dm
Was planning his escape
[Chorus]

He was a crazy little child

New Orleans Alley playground

Winos were his friends and when he talked to them

They said, "Jackson, boy, they'll get you by and by"

If you need another boy

A trigger or a blade

Once over, then he smiled

I think you'll like the view

Of that long green when you crack that safe tonight"

And I'll be your ears and your eyes
