Fresh Out The Slammer
Now pretty baby I'm runnin' back home to you
- Now pretty baby I'm runnin' back home to you
- Fresh out the slammer I know who my first call will be to
- Fresh out the slammer oh
- Another summer takin' cover
- Rollin' thunder he don't understand me
- Splintered back in winter silent dinners bitter
- He was with her in dreams
- Gray and blue and fights and tunnels
- Handcuffed to the spell I was under
- For just one hour of sunshine
- Years of labor locks and ceilings
- In the shade of how he was feelin'
- But it's gonna be alright I did my time
- Now pretty baby I'm runnin' back home to you
- Fresh out the slammer I know who my first call will be to
- Fresh out the slammer oh
- Camera flashes welcome bashes
- Get the matches toss the ashes off the ledge
- As I said in my letters now that I know better
- I will never lose my baby again
- My friends tried but I wouldn't hear it
- Watched me daily disappearing
- For just one glimpse of his smile
- All those nights you kept me going
- Swirled you into all of my poems
- Now we're at the starting line I did my time
- Now pretty baby I'm runnin'
- To the house where you still wait up and that porch light gleams
- To the one who says I'm the girl of his American Dreams
- And no matter what I've done it wouldn't matter anyway
- Ain't no way I'm gonna screw up now that I know what's at stake
- Here
- At the park where we used to sit on children's swings
- Wearing imaginary rings
- But it's gonna be alright I did my time
