Heartbreak's on the horizon
Storm clouds are rolling in
Livin on the outside
Deep inside the city of sin
Mary! sweet Jesus Mary!
Baby girl my how you've grown!
But you sure been acting funny
Since you left our home sweet home
Did you find your milk and honey
On that tarnished road you thought was gold?
Daddy wouldn't recognize you
In those fancy clothes you wear
Of all us kids' he says you look most like mama
Even got her golden hair
Heartbreak's on the horizon
Storm clouds are rolling in
Living on the outside
Deep inside the city of sin
Mary! sweet Jesus Mary!
How did you get so lost!
Stoned, sad faced and crying
Has it all been worth the cost?
What's come over you little sister
Once rosy cheeked and smiling
Eyes clearest cornflower blue ...
What is it I'm to tell them
That you do?
Daddy would disown you
If he knew of the life you've led
He'd hide the truth from mama
Rather tell her you was dead
Heartbreak's on the horizon
Storm clouds are rolling in
Baby sister's lives in purgatory
Deep inside the city of sin
Adding your comment:
I LOVE Tracy. Bring back memories. Though I don't listen much to music nowadays. Better yet what they call music. Rather listen to freestyle and jazz... But from "Fast Car" to "Gimme a Reason"... Well done, sweets. She is a muscian. Write on and good luck. One.
