The Outsiders the Musical - Little Brother Lyrics

The song is written by Jonathan Clay, Zach Chance, Justin Levine and Adam Rapp.

First they beat us down
One after another
Keep losing ground
No where to take cover
They want us out of town
Then who would they beat on
Who would they spit on
Who would they blame it on
If we werent around  
Now we’re never going back
Every thing is lost
And will never get it back
Cus a lines been crossed

Little brother
Sorry I failed you
I could not save you
No I can’t even save myself
Little brother
They can not hurt you anymore
And they can not take anymore from me
If I ain’t got you
And  I aint got nothing else  

If anything was fair
Then you would still be here
Dose anybody care
When a greaser disappears
We’re never going back
Everything is lost
And we’ll never get it back
Cus a lines been crossed

Little Brother
Sorry I failed you
I could not save you
No I can’t even save my self
Little brother
They can not hurt you anymore
And they can not take anymore from me
If I aint got you then I aint got nothing else
Oohhh then I ain’t got nothing else

There’s only one way out
I finally see it now
They took the only thing that mattered to me any how
That’s why I’m standing here
No good to run away
That’s all I’ve ever done but now it’s time to stay
Do it for all of us
The faces in the crowd
And when they try to shut
You up they screen it twice as loud
Do it for Kool and Luke
Do it for Jessi James
Do it for all the young sung hero’s
You don’t know there names
Do it for Pony Boy
Do it for Johny K
Don’t leeve a stone a turn
Don’t leeve a Dad in pain
Johny I am coming home
Bout to take my final bow  
Hope you saved a seat for me
Johnny can you see me now
