lirik lagu te/mo - the good officer
[verse 1]
officer jay liked to
pass the day with laughter
patrols went by faster
with his easy chatter
and a malboro on breaks
there was always something more to give
for the bravest man who ever lived
he was a good officer
[verse 2]
he’d flash his lights
for the children riding by on bikes
he was the first one in
at 6am
and the last one out at night
and he loved his wife
he was a family guy
on the front line fight for what’s right
he was a good officer
[verse 3]
and i met jay on a sat~rday
on ravenswood and rose
stopped mе at the gates
said, by the way, makе sure
you’re out by close
and i thanked him then
for the helping hand
he was the very d~mn picture
of a midwest man
he was a good officer
[verse 4]
october 4th, he got the report
someone on the squad
needed his support
he was close nearby
when they caught his eye
it was a guy who had defied
an order to the court
so set on helping someone
he didn’t even hear the gun
he was a good officer
[verse 5]
his deed stuck with me
so i went to see
if i could find him
thank him for what he’d done for me
knocked on the door
of number 4
asked the woman there if jay
lived on her floor
and she looked at me
like i’d played some trick
she said, “girl
jay died in ’86!
he died a good officer”
[verse 6]
so to this day
his kindness stays
served his whole life long
then beyond the grave
he’d say, “that’s what you do
when you’re called to
the duty that your city trusted to you”
so hug your loved ones tight today
and if they ask why
tell them it’s for jay
for the good officer
