Sister cry, from what you needed |
|
Bought yourself things you could not use |
|
Could be some man will come along and claim you |
|
Could be you'll wind up in another town |
|
Sister cry, count the stars |
|
As many in the sky that passed you by |
|
Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes |
|
Somehow the changes made won't belong to you |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And you called my name, I was so hungry then) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And could not see you) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And we don't talk at all, it's the hardest way) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
Sister cry, you been mistreated |
|
It doesn't mean someone won't let you in |
|
Could be some man will come along and claim you |
|
Could be you'll wind up in another town |
|
There's devils knocking at your door |
|
But I could lead them all astray |
|
Just don't matter what people say |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And you called my name, I was so hungry then) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And could not see you) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
(And we don't talk at all, it's the hardest way) |
|
Someone come along and carry you down |
|
Sister cry, count the stars |
|
As many in the sky that passed you by |
|
Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes |
|
Somehow the changes made won't belong to you |
|
Could be up ahead you'll be seeing changes |
|
Somehow the changes made won't belong to you |
