Leavers Lullaby

When did I get this crazy?

When did I get so mean?

Living wild and exhausted

Paying what it cost to feel so free

Run along, little daddy, take the dog and the house and dang me

It ain't worth the time that it's gonna take to change me

It's as deep as the holler and clear as the water that stains me

I want whatever it is I ain't gettin' from you

I know you need me to need you

I tried to teach you to be tough, mm

There'd be no such thing as leaving

If just loving somebody was enough

Run along, little daddy, take the dog and the house and dang me

It ain't worth the time that it's gonna take to change me

It's as deep as the holler and clear as the water that stains me

I want whatever it is I ain't gettin' from you

La la la la la...
