Cecilia |
Gypsy woman |
Come inside now |
And take a load off your feet |
You’ve been pounding the pavement |
Ain’t told a fortune in weeks |
She spends here money on tequila |
She says it keeps her warm |
They call her many things but her name’s Cecilia |
Now don’t you know, now don’t you know |
Hey hey hey hey Cecilia |
Don’t you know the streets will kill ya |
Don’t you know your mama misses ya |
Don’t you know don’t you know |
Gypsy woman |
Say she don’t need ya |
And asks for a ride to the liquor store |
She kills the bottle |
Gives praise to Jesus |
Then passes out on your living room floor |
She tells the story of a shotgun wedding |
And a birth of a stillborn child |
She was only 13 and her little body wasn’t ready |
Babies watching babies die |
Hey hey hey hey Cecilia |
Don’t you know the streets will kill ya |
Don’t you know your mama misses ya |
Don’t you know don’t you know |
Hey hey hey hey Cecilia |
I have seen the beauty in ya |
Don’t you know you’re one in a million |
Don’t you know don’t you know |
Hey hey hey hey Cecilia |
Don’t you know the streets will kill ya |
Don’t you know your mama misses ya |
Don’t you know don’t you know |
Hey hey hey hey Cecilia |
I have seen the beauty in ya |
Don’t you know you’re one in a million |
Don’t you know don’t you know |
