Daddy was a mourning dove born to be away His body hurt in spite of the medicine he made this time To hold off the outside You once made me of love with your hands Still wet from the clay you brought me to life Safe from the outside Come back, back from, back from the city Dry out your mind I'm all that you have left I can forgive you your love I can give you my love But still you helped to pull the oil from the earth Just like you sold the spring that brought us life And saved us from the outside Come back, back from, back from the city Dry out your mind I'm all that you have left I can forgive you your love I can give you my love Come back, back from, back from the city Dry out your mind I'm all that you have left Daddy was a mourning dove born to be away His body hurt in spite of the medicine he made this time To hold off the outside Hold off the outside
