Child, please don't worry |
|
There will be plenty of time now to find your eye |
|
He's been calling her to bed |
|
To come make a home and start again |
|
Well she ain't coming back and you know why |
|
It's a hard life we're living |
|
I want to lay down here right next to you and die |
|
But it ain't no family stone that's gonna bring your baby home |
|
Well she ain't coming back and you know why |
|
We've been praying out on gravel roads |
|
You know we ain't gonna waste no time |
|
Parading our hearts from door to door |
|
Well we ain't gonna waste no time |
|
It's a high lonesome road to hold |
|
But I'm not going to change at all |
|
No you ain't gonna see me hang this here head and cry |
|
Child, don't get behind me |
|
It's hard enough to fake but Lord I try |
|
I'd hate to miss my chance to use the phone and make amends |
|
Well she ain't coming back so I don't try |
|
We've been praying out on gravel roads |
|
You know we ain't gonna waste no time |
|
Parading our hearts from door to door |
|
Well we ain't gonna waste no time |
|
It's a high lonesome road to hold |
|
But I'm not going to change at all |
|
No you ain't gonna see me hang this here head and cry |
