Nusrat
Nevermind the bollocks
Nevermind Kurt Cobain
He put the gun into his mouth
Heroin was in his veins
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
He came from Pakistan
He joined the people with his voice
When he died it was not his choice
Buckleys there was Jeff and Tim
Whatever became of them
They both died early in their lives
When they died they left a mother and a wife
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
Early one morning the sun was shining
I was lying in bed
Wondering if she'd changed all
If her hair was still red
Some folks spend their whole lives together
Assuming it's gonna be rough
Never did like momma homemade shoes
Poppa's bankbook wasn't big enough
I was standing at the side of the road
Rain falling on my shoes
Heading out for the old eastcoast
Lord knows I've paid my dues
