For My Family Lyrics

This one's for my father
I hope they don't work him to his grave
This one's for my mother
For keeping me fed everyday
This one's for my borther
So that they never make him their slave
This one's for my sister
That she might find someone to love her in the right way
I ain't got no reason left to be afraid
No
I ain't got no reason left to be afraid
I ain't got no reason left to be afraid

So this one's for my father
And for that crazy look in his eye
This one's for my mother
That she might be a child and cry
This one's for my brother
For showin' me that there's things that money can't buy
This one's for my sister
For teaching me to always keep my weapons by my side
I ain't gonna sit and let this world go by
No
I ain't gonna sit and let this world go by
I ain't gonna sit and let this world go by

This one's for my family
For crazy screams flying up the stairs
This one's for my family
'Cause they're the only ones who were there
This one's for the card game
That we might all play out our hands
And this one's for my family
I guess I know exactly who I am
And I guess that's thanks to them
Oh, I guess that's thanks to them

The Devil Makes Three is an Americana band from Santa Cruz, California, United States. The group blends bluegrass, old time, country, folk, blues, jazz, and ragtime music. The group's members are guitarist Pete Bernhard, upright bassist Lucia Turino, and guitarist and tenor banjo player Cooper McBean.

“The rhythm is what our band is about." Says Pete Bernhard: Guitarist, Front Man. The Devil Makes Three are quite possibly the best band that you have never heard of. They have been constantly on tour, selling out dates across the country and in their neck of the woods on the West Coast drawing near capacity crowds nightly. This is all word of mouth. Over the years, the Devil Makes Three have garnered fans the old school way, playing a city, making friends, conquering fans and moving on.

Laced with elements of ragtime, blues, country, folk and rockabilly, the critically praised, drummer-less trio - consisting of Vermont native, guitarist/front man Pete Bernhard, stand-up bassist Lucia Turino and guitarist Cooper McBean, also of rural Vermont - brings forth a genuine approach to acoustic music. The sound is deeply steeped in rhythm and alive with three part harmonies, while keeping a slightly punk aesthetic to their music and especially their live shows.

Note: the following songs belong to a different band with the same name, a small local metal band from Northern Ireland:
