	Story Behind the Song I read in the paper about a 19 year old kid who was gunned down on a streetcorner for selling crack on someone else's turf, and i got to thinking how one stupid decision can have such dire consequences not only for the person making the decision, but for every life connected to that person. I went down to my writing area and this song practically jumped out. Lyrics Almost midnight on the losin' side of town Gettin' colder and the rain is pourin' down Young man on the corner tryin' to move some crack Car pulls up he takes a bullet in the back (CH) and it's a hard oh it's a hard it's a hard night for livin' But it's a good night for the blues Not too far away a girl sits all alone Waitin' for her man to bring the money home Baby's cryin' but there isn't any more She doesn't know he'll never come back through that door (CH) Bridge Bad luck and trouble They'll find you anywhere Don't matter who you are They don't seem to care Rich or poor Black or White Blues gonna find somebody tonight Telephone is ringin' a mother takes the call Stares at her young boy's picture on the wall She drops the phone and the tears start to fall She can hear the sirens echo down the hall (CH)
