Stonewall District - Nir Shor

Don't be angry with me, darling If I fail to understand All your little whims and wishes all the time Just remember that I'm dumb I guess, like any foolish man And my head stays sorta foggy 'cause you're mine Well, I recall the first time That I flirted with you dear When I jokingly said, "Come and be my bride" Now that time has turned the pages It's the sweetest joke on Earth That I have you here forever by my side Maybe someday you're gonna hurt me I've been hurt in love before Only God can know and time alone will tell But in the meantime I'll keep loving you With all my heart and soul And pray God to let it last if it's his will So don't be angry with me, darling If I fail to understand All your little whims and wishes all the time Just remember that I'm dumb I guess, like any foolish man And my head stays sorta foggy 'cause you're mine

I was born in Macon, Georgia They kept my dad in the Macon jail Daddy said, "Son, if you keep them hands clean You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail" But I fell in with bad companions We robbed a man up in Tennessee The sheriff caught me way up in Nashville They locked me up and threw away the key I washed my hands in muddy water Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean Tried to do like daddy told me But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream Asked the jailor (asked the jailor) When's my time up (when is my time up?) He said, "Son (he said son) We won't forget (we won't forget) And if you try (if you try) To keep your hands clean (keep your hands clean) We may make a good man of you yet" I couldn't wait to do my sentence I broke out of the Nashville jail I just crossed the line of Georgia And I can't hear them bloodhounds on my trail I washed my hands in muddy water I washed my hands, but they didn't come clean Tried to do like daddy told me But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
