Dear teachers:
Would you explain the lyrics in the following to me?
...Just a small town dude with a big city attitude.
...Till my heart is crying Indian and I'm beggin' for more. (crying Indian?)
...Tonight you're gonna go down in flames just like Jesse James. (Who is Jesse James? Does he really exist in history?)
Thanks. |

Jesse James was the leader of an outlaw gang in the Old West of the US. They robbed trains and banks in the latter half of the 1800's. Many of the common folk looked upon them as heroes because their main victims were train companies. Many felt abused by the train companies for taking thier land at unfair prices.
Sorry, but I don't know "crying Indian." |
