about

A song written for my little brother, Mark Lobo.

lyrics

Little Brother
Words and Music by Narciso Lobo, Jr.

I still remember when you learned to walk
You learned to sing before you could talk
If you weren't surprising you sure were a shock
And I was a proud new big brother

You learned too early that love sometimes ends
And moving too much makes it hard to keep friends
We did our best, but I guess it depends
We tried to rely on each other

Four walls and watchdogs and pissing in cups
Gas masks and train tracks, can't hardly stand up
You'd never admit it, but you can sure use a hand
I'll get there as soon as I can

I used to take you to all of my shows
You'd feed me my next line when I didn't know
I was a joker, but you were my bro
We tried to rely on each other

In high school you had to just fend for yourself
Selfish or not, I put you on the shelf
It's time to stop living for just my damn self
I owe it to our poor sweet old mother

Four walls and watchdogs and pissing in cups
Gas masks and train tracks, can't hardly stand up
You'd never admit it, but you can sure use a hand
I'll get there as soon as I can

Four walls and watchdogs and pissing in cups
Gas masks and train tracks, can't hardly stand up
You'd never admit it, but you can sure use a hand
I'll get there as soon as I can
I'll get there as soon as I can
