By the time you were born, there were four other siblings | |
With your mama awaiting your daddy in jail | |
And your oldest brother was away at a home | |
And you didn't meet him 'til you were nineteen years old | |
Old enough to know better, old enough to know better | |
But you took to his jaw line and long sandy hair | |
And he made you feel like none of the others | |
And the way he looked at you, touched you deep down in there | |
So you jumped on his bike and rode into the sunset | |
But the sequel it started with the next morning sun | |
And the dew on the bike seat and you all a glow | |
From the love he put in you and a life on the run | |
So you moved to a small town, then to another | |
Then to another with another on its way | |
And you both swore to | |
God we will keep it together | |
And the State wouldn't take your babies away | |
Now, the District | |
Attorney said he might of forgiven | |
You had lots of reasons to turn out this way | |
But you both go to jail for them four little babies | |
You made and delivered along the way | |
Last night you had a dream of a | |
Lord so forgiving | |
He might show compassion for a heathen he damned | |
You awoke in a jail cell, alone and so lonely | |
Seven years in | |
