Rayland Baxter - Tadpole şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Rayland Baxter

albüm: If I Were A Butterfly


So I'm on my way back
To the house that I grew up in
The beige one with the red door
Across the street from the library
I used to play below the parking lot
Of the old hickory church of Christ
Where all my neighbors went
To see the Savior they've been into, yeah
♪
My mother used to be
A secretary on a fishing boat
Until she went to college
And became a famous scientist, yeah
Huckleberry, Finn and I
We used to bike around at night
Take a right on riverside
And let our paper airplanes fly
Just the other day
I drove down my old street
Just the other day
I recognized my neighbor
And he recognized me too
♪
Ding-dong, the witch is dead
All my neighbors whisper it
Loretta pulled the trigger
On a quiet summer morning
The shot was loud enough for
Everyone to hear on Cleve Street
My mother wasn't home that day
So I cried, cried, cried
Every now and then
I drive down my old street
Every now and then
I stand barefoot in my own backyard
There I see my Savior
Staring back at me
I wonder if I've changed at all
Since 1983, oh, yeah
♪
I used to wait 'til the late of night
They caught me every time I tried
To get on top of the church of Christ
Where all my paper airplanes died
