	Lyrics JIMMY EAGLE He was born Jimmy Eagle In some government housing And behind the casino he would play He learned blackjack & bingo And he learned to throw craps On all the old indian ways He remembers when it was quiet On the reservation And the deer and the rabbits, they would run Now it's Mustangs and Jaguars And white trash Camaros They roll up from sundown 'til dawn Ki yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yo be ay Ki yi yi yi yi yi yi yi ay Ki yi yi yi yi yi yi yi yo be ay Ki yi yi yi yi yi yi yi ay Though all his people They'd live there and die To Jimmy Eagle it just didn't feel like his home So he packed up his spirits In a county transit bus Now he does all his drinking downtown (Chorus) Jimmy Eagle pitched his blanket Beneath the 805 bridge Now he hunts like the Indians of old Mostly for bottles and cans And he'll dance for your change Or he'll sing you a song from his home: (chorus)
