Maria's Little Elbows

Well I'll bet my Maria's got an elbow full of lonely

Now here's a little prayer so that she might get some sleep

Don't let her face be skinned by the sun today

Don't let it in when it comes knocking at your door

Loneliness

Loneliness

Loneliness

Sometimes you feel you got the emptiest arms in the whole world

Try to make sense but it always comes out absurd

Sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers

Don't let 'em in when it comes kicking at your door

Loneliness

Loneliness

Loneliness

Came kicking at my door

She said, "I've really come to hate my body

And all the things that it requires in this world"

I bet you're out there getting drunk with all your friends

And it'll get you in the bathroom of a Texaco

Loneliness

Loneliness

Loneliness

Came kicking at my door
