Policemen shot my baby as he crossed right over my doorstep |
|
Policemen shot my baby crossing right over my doorstep |
|
His arms were so close you could see the blood pulsing through both his wrists |
|
Don't tell me the cops are right in a wrong like this |
|
Cause policemen shot my baby as he crossed right over my doorstep |
|
I was taught we must be grateful for the time that we are here |
|
In the world |
|
To accept death as beyond our heads and be bitter no more |
|
But if you found your first joy in life in the arms of a man |
|
Don't tell me you wouldn't curse the god that made your hands |
|
When policemen shot your baby crossing right over your doorstep |
|
Policemen shot my baby as he crossed over my doorstep |
|
Policemen shot my baby crossing right over my doorstep |
|
His arms were so close you could see the blood pulsing through both his wrists |
|
Don't tell me the cops are right in a wrong like this |
|
Cause policemen shot my baby as he crossed over my doorstep |
|
In my life |
|
I never met a guy who was a better man(How sad that she doesn't understand how) |
|
Oh so gentle with his woman and with two feet on the ground(Just as solid as he sounds) |
|
And I felt my first joy in life with my head on his chest |
|
Then his trouble came from looking out for all the rest |
|
Policemen shot my baby crossing right over my doorstep |
|
Sha-na-na, |
|
Sha-na-na, |
|
Sha-na-naOo-wo-oo-wo-oo-woo x4 |
|
Well, I've tried so hard to be a peaceful, loving woman |
|
Oh, I believed that love and understanding were the way |
|
Oh, but how many gone before you listen to the cries |
|
With my dead heart, how do |
|
I find my way through the truth and all the lies |
|
Policemen shot my baby as he crossed over my doorstep |
|
Sha-na-na, |
|
Sha-na-na, |
|
Sha-na-naOo-wo-oo-wo-oo-woox4 |
