They gave you such a hard time
|
When they took your babe away
|
You heard it on the airwaves
|
that she joined the SLA
|
Oh the stories, tape recordings
|
Just when things seemed at their worst
|
Then the good Lord heard you calling
|
And he gave back Patty Hearst
|
|
You got your baby back
|
Poor girl is out of the sack
|
silly young thing, was just a fling
|
Like any teenager would do
|
But daddy is here now, to buy you some clothes
|
and maybe a new cadilliac
|
You got your baby back
|
|
When she started to flee, you gave food for free
|
but you knew that you would'nt go broke
|
The day in the bank, the sporting OF RANK
|
was just a fraternity joke
|
|
You got your babe, that's no lie
|
Thanks to the old FBI
|
Time to relate and sit by a pool
|
and maybe she'll go back to school
|
|
And Daddy is here now, to buy you some clothes
|
amd maybe a new cadilliac
|
You got your baby back
|
|
(spoken)
|
Why Patty baby
|
I knew deep down in my heart that you'd be coming back to your papa
|
And honey, I did'nt believe a thing they said in all those silly little old
|
newspapers,
|
Especially the ones I didn't own.
|
But don't worry darling, We'll be keeping your supper warm
|
|
When she started to flee, you gave food for free
|
but you knew that you wouldn't go broke
|
The day in the bank, the sporting OF RANK
|
was just a fraternity joke.
|
|
You got your baby back, poor girl is out of the sack
|
Silly young thing, was just a fling like any teenager would do
|
But daddy is here now, to buy you some clothes and maybe a new cadilliac
|
You got your baby back (repeat three times)
