How Can I Protect You? |
She got a compact mirror |
Stole it off her mother |
She got her daddy’s overnight traveling bag |
Always been told «if you wanna leave home honey, you ain’t ever, |
ever welcome back» |
And now she’s down at the station, baby in her belly |
Kickin' gentle momma chilled to the max |
She got a one way ticket, goin’cross the border |
For her hopes and all her dreams |
Rollin down the train tracks, yeah |
How can I protect you in this, crazy world? |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
From two to nine you work for five-a-dime |
Start the night with some thunderbird wine |
Praise the lord for those neon lights that’a |
Keep the city burnin' bright all night |
Walkin' in the park in the midnight rain |
Swear to yourself that ya gonna change |
Ain’t gonna crash, ain’t gonna burn, ain’t gonna take no wrong turn |
Feel so alone, so you telephone, ya |
Call collect ain’t nobody home |
You ain’t surprised though you wonder why your letters come back unopened |
So you hit the strip with your freak flag high an' |
Forget about the tears in your daddy’s eyes |
Momma don’t worry if the waters rise |
Don’t ever let my drink run dry till the sunshine |
How can I protect you in this, crazy world? |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
And when the talkin’s over |
There’s nothing left I can do |
How’m I ever gonna get through to you? |
Let the angels be the navigators |
The devil will get there on his own |
Let the cherubin |
Let the serafin |
Keep you walkin' on the road back home, yeah |
How can I protect you? |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
How can I protect you in this, crazy world? |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
How can I protect you in this, crazy world? |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
It’s alright |
Yeah |
It’s alright |
