Leave Your Bags By The Door |
| Well I can see by your eyes that you come from far away |
| You’ve been traveling all night and you’d like a place to stay |
| Well that’s alright, baby leave your bags by the door |
| That’s alright, honey you can even ask for more |
| I won’t ask you where you’re from |
| Where you’re going or why you’ve come |
| For a lot of answers to all the questions on my tongue |
| No that’s alright, baby leave your bags by the door |
| That’s alright, honey you can even ask for more |
| Well who are we two as we stand here tonight? |
| Are you a prince in paupe’s rags come down from the heights |
| See the way your subjects live when you’ve turned your back |
| Taste the fruits of the common man and the purpose that you lack? |
| Or are you just a Tom wonderin' the night |
| Looking for a diamond mine and banking on it’s might |
| Standing in the footprints of the wanders before you |
| Looking for fulfillment and hoping that there’s more |
| Yes, my name is Jill Ryder and I’m a seamstress for the fleet |
| I stand five foot seven in my cold bare feet |
| And I’ve raised two daughters one from each of the loves of my life |
| I’m a widow two times, my girls are still alive |
| So why don’t you come in out of the cold warm your feet by my fire |
| The cat’s name is Lady, why don’t you just sit down beside her |
| Listen to her purr, oh you know she’s content |
| To left the world drift by and let those crooked lines stay bent |
| Don’t be afraid to let it all hang out, 'cause I’ve seen it all before |
| And what harm could come from just a little bit more, just a little bit more? |
