There was a time in my life
When it ran so cold
Can't find a friend
Anywhere at all
So my brother said to me
Charles gotta stand tall

Because life is full of sorrow
Heartaches and pain

Get it again

I woke up this morning
My momma she was cryin
So i looked out my window
Police lights was flashing
People was screaming
So i ran down to the street
My friends grabbed my shoulder
And he said these words to me

Life is full of sorrow
So i have to tell you this
Your brother is gone

Heartaches and pain
Heartaches heartaches and pain

Heartaches and pain
