Nephew in the Wild

Alicia
 she married young
 The year she was widowed
 she had a son
 On Christmas
 or when you'd pass through
 You'd bring Danzig records
 for your nephew
 In hard times
 kids grow up fast
 Please be there for him
 your sister would ask
 He's trouble
 just like you were
 With girls & with teachers
 Without a father
 Like you
 when you were a child
 A young nephew out in the wild
 At sixteen
 he dropped out of school
 Took off with some jewelry
 his dad's coat & tools
 He called you
 from the bus depot
 With his girlfriend pregnant
 & nowhere to go
 You told him
 that he should go home
 & said you were sorry
 & hung up the phone
 Then no one
 heard from him at all
 When Alicia came crying
 you didn't mention his call
 Like you
 when you were a child
 Your nephew's out in the wild
