How Can I Protect You (Dope Mix) Lyrics by Alabama 3
Hits and Exit Wounds

She got a compact mirror Stole it off her mother She got her daddy's overnight traveling bag Always been told "if you ever leave home honey You ain't ever, ever welcome back" And now she's down at the station, baby in her belly Kickin' gentle momma chilled to the max She got a one way ticket, goin' across the border For her hopes and all her dreams Rollin down the train tracks, yeah So how can I protect you in this, crazy world? It's alright Yeah It's alright From two to nine you work for five-a-dime Start the night with some thunderbird wine Praise the lord for those neon lights that'a Keep the city burnin' bright all night Walkin' in the park in the midnight rain Swear to yourself that ya gonna change Ain't gonna crash, ain't gonna burn, ain't gonna take no wrong turn Feel so alone, so you telephone, ya Call collect ain't nobody home You ain't surprised though you wonder why your letters come back unopened So you hit the strip with your freak flag high an' Forget about the tears in your daddy's eyes Momma don't worry if the waters rise Don't ever let my drink run dry 'til the sunshine So how can I protect you in this, crazy world? It's alright Yeah It's alright And when the talkin's over All the crowd have gone There's nothing left I can do How'm I ever gonna get through to you? It's alright So how can I protect you in this, crazy world? It's alright It's alright So how can I protect you in this, crazy world? It's alright It's alright It's alright When the talking's over baby It's alright Nothing right nothing wrong, but It's alright It's coming on top like some... It's alright Flat top Cadillac back in 1952 I was cutting through the blues, and It's alright One more and your momma went to heaven You say 'fella I'm gonna pick up an AK47 Because I am gonna protect myself' It's alright Well how can I protect myself How can I protect you right now It's alright How can I protect you right now It's alright Put on the Merle Haggard live at the chapel Say 'Johnny Cash I wanna hear your gospel music Straight out of that cave, soul, fate and problems coming down'
