[00:04.37]Where in hell can you go, far from the things that you know,
[00:13.29]Far from this concrete sprawl that keeps crawling it's way,
[00:21.03]About a thousand miles a day.
[00:27.67]Take one last look behind, commit this to memory and mind,
[00:36.28]Don't miss this wasteland, this terrible place, when you leave,
[00:43.52]Keep your heart off your sleeve.
[00:49.24]Motherland cradle me, close my eyes lullaby me to sleep,
[00:58.16]Keep me safe, lie with me stay beside me don't go.
[01:08.71]My five and dime queen, tell me what have you seen,
[01:17.00]The lust and the avarice the bottomless cavernous greed,
[01:25.13]Is that what you see?
[01:28.22]Motherland cradle me, close my eyes lullaby me to sleep,
[01:37.09]Keep me safe, lie with me stay beside me don't go.
[01:46.42]Don't you go ...
[01:51.29]It's your happiness I want most of all
[02:00.26]and for that I'd do anything at all.
[02:06.28]If you want the best of life and the most of love,
[02:16.33]If there is anything I can do at all.
[02:23.87]Come on shotgun bride, what makes me envy your life,
[02:32.15]The faceless the nameless the innocent the blameless and free,
[02:39.80]What's that like to be?
[02:43.50]Motherland cradle me, close my eyes lullaby me to sleep,
[02:51.68]Keep me safe lie with me stay beside me don't go,
[03:01.00]Motherland cradle me, close my eyes lullaby me to sleep,
[03:09.80]Keep me safe lie with me stay beside me don't go,
[03:18.91]Don't you go ...
