|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because they said she was not a good mother |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because she was making it with sisters and brothers |
|
And everyone else, all of the others |
|
Like cheap officers who would |
|
Stand there and flirt in front of me |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because they said she was not a good mother |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because of the things that they heard she had done |
|
The black air force sergeant was not the first one |
|
And all of the drugs she took, every one, every one |
|
And i am the water boy, the real game's not over here |
|
But my heart is overflowin' anyway |
|
I'm just a tired man, no words to say |
|
But since she lost her daughter |
|
It's her eyes that fill with water |
|
And i am much happier this way |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because they said she was not a good mother |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because number one was the girl friend from paris |
|
The things that they did, ah, they didn't have to ask us |
|
And then the welshman from india, who came here to stay |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because they said she was not a good mother |
|
They're taking her children away |
|
Because of the things she did in the streets |
|
In the alleys and bars, no she couldn't be beat |
|
That miserable rotten slut couldn't turn, anyone away |
|
I am the water boy, the real game's not over here |
|
But my heart is overflowin' anyway |
|
I'm just a tired man, no words to say |
|
But since she lost her daughter |
|
It's her eyes that fill with water |
|
And i am much happier this way |
