I'm gonna spank ya till you can't sit down
It came down upon the women for survival
Impossible to keep a straight line
Burst apart, ah, we lose each other
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this
I looked forwards and never backwards
You stop me if I get it wrong
And all around me, somebody's singin'
She is tired and feeling so much older
And all around me, somebody's singin'
It came down upon the women for survival
Too young to keep these bitter hearts
Impossible to keep a straight line
And long hair comin' down her shoulders
Too young to keep these bitter hearts
And I wasn't meanin' nothing at all
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this
The constellation of my sisters and brothers
Get back, get back
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this
I think I'm hearin' somebody sayin'
Are spreading all out into the darkness
I was out the door like a rollin' soldier
So tear the pages from the family bible
