Eddie

I woke up today, the papers spoke of a man we know
 He's made of the stuff they say that first made our country grow
 Living in style, traveling to distant lands
 Better hang tough, for now it's time to make your stand
 Can we ignore the basic facts of history
 Or deny what people say is destiny
 I think the message is ever so loud and clear
 Eddie, now don't you run
 You know you're a bootlegger's son
 And you saw just what it's done to the others
 Eddie, now don't you run
 It's the end of all your fun
 And you saw just what they've done
 To your brothers
 Can we ignore the basic facts of history
 Or deny what people say is destiny
 First in the eighties but last of the sons
 First in the eyes of his countrymen
 I think the message is ever so loud and clear
 Eddie, now don't you run
 You know you're a bootlegger's son
 And you saw just what it's done to the others
 Eddie, now don't you run
 It's the end of all your fun
 And you saw just what they've done
 To your brothers
