[00:04.10]Jimmy Sparks went into bars and opened up his mouth
[00:10.98]Said some things to wounded men that they could not allow
[00:17.57]When it came to talking he was always on the run
[00:24.03]Everyone knew what the man had done
[00:30.17]Oh, he'll take you for a ride
[00:47.95]Jimmy believed in the American way
[00:51.76]A prison guard he worked hard and made the minimum wage
[00:57.57]He found his freedom locking men in a cage
[01:06.48]Jimmy loved Bonnie and he fathered a kid
[01:10.33]A baby boy but the mother had other reasons to live
[01:16.46]She left the baby with a note on the bed
[01:24.69]It was a struggle just to cover the rent
[01:29.04]His jail cut hours and now his little baby was sick
[01:34.71]He needed money and he needed it quick
[01:38.48]It was three AM
[01:41.85]Oh my love oh my love
[01:50.86]Could you spare my blood, spare my blood
[02:00.95]Jim woke his son and buckled him in the car
[02:05.68]They drove an hour from town and found a gambling hall
[02:10.88]The waitress babysat the boy at the bar oh no
[02:18.86]After an hour Jimmy doubled his cash
[02:23.23]He took his kid and his winnings as the dealer just laughed
[02:28.38]He said they leave but then they always come back
[02:31.83]That's a fact
[02:35.84]Out on the road they caught a stranger in the lights
[02:40.85]His thumb was up and the son asked if the man was alright
[02:45.54]Jim said you never give a hitcher a ride
[02:49.08]Cause it's us or them
[02:52.72]It was three AM
[02:57.26]Oh my love oh my love
[03:04.66]Could you spare my blood, spare my blood
[03:28.79]Twenty years gone and now the boy is a man
[03:32.84]Old Jimmy's habits got him mountains and mountains of debt
[03:38.02]And now the sharks are coming back to collect
[03:45.64]They strip the jewelry and the boots off Jim's feet
[03:50.72]They kick Him out of the car and say we'll give you a week
[03:55.46]Eight miles from home and only eighteen degrees
[03:59.00]It was three AM
[04:02.27]Oh my love oh my love
[04:10.46]Would you spare my blood, damn my blood
[04:50.79]Now Jimmy's son is trying to make his way home
[04:56.25]His graveyard shift had ended and it was starting to snow
[05:01.73]He sees an old man walking barefoot alone
[05:05.75]It was three AM
[05:10.95]His old man waved his hands with tears in his eyes
[05:15.87]But Jimmy's son just sped up and remembered daddy's advice
[05:21.88]No you don't ever give a hitcher a ride
[05:25.81]'Cause it's us or them
[05:29.86]'Cause it's me or him
[05:35.27]It was three AM
[05:40.66]Three AM
