Most nights she keeps a very sharp knife
|
Next to a burning stove.
|
So hot that the water tops off
|
And she tumbles down onto the floor.
|
|
She holds her head in her hands.
|
What a cruel heaven she must have.
|
|
But it's all right
|
It's all right
|
It's just a hard old world
|
And we both know
|
It's all right.
|
|
Her hand grabs a heavy lead pipe
|
The one that used to let her know
|
How hard her Daddy could hit
|
She remembers that on the floor.
|
|
Heard the man for mayor
|
Did this thing
|
|
So you crossed the street
|
To let him see
|
|
Long time since that weekend
|
Fling and he
|
|
Got to see his old sweetie
|
All grown.
