Cory B. was a friend
I knew pretty well
We used to work at the same damn place
In our home town
We would cut it down
When no one else was around
He lived with his mom
And his sisters who
I met a couple of times
There was something different
But I did not ask
I knew his life was not like mine
No not like mine
There had been bad times
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
Blow up your world and be free
Until we meet again
Your Mama cried
Fly away from here
Tonight’s the night to just disappear
And son don’t do those things
That he done to me
Things he’s done to me
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
Cory wore his father’s ring
And he took me to his grave
A bullet shell on the dash of his truck
A reminder of the ways
He could not face
So he vanished away
And he drove that truck into the night
With a bible in his hand
And Colt 45 underneath the seat
Just incase they didn’t understand
He made his choice
So the trouble begin
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
Blow up your world and be free
Until we meet again
Your Mama cried
Fly away from here
Tonight’s the night to just disappear
And son don’t do those things
Things he done to me
Things he’s done to me
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
Come on and blow up your world and be free
Until we meet again
Your Mama cried
Fly away from here
Tonight’s the night to just disappear
And son don’t do those things
That he done to me
Things he’s done to me
Won’t you now
Blow up your world Cory B.
