Baby² Lyrics by The Drones

Wait Long by the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By

2005

[Verse 1]
I said, why d'you people such an ugly place?
I said that anyone would think you came from outer space
She held her skin to yours, when they brought you out
You've ruined all that she had left, but ain't that obvious now
[Chorus]
Babe, babe, babe, you can't never die
Your daddy's gonna buy you a big black ride
See the bare legged children by the side of the road
I get to feeling so low low low low low, and Lord, I know not why!
[Verse 2]
I lived in the country but I had to leave
I went down, lived by the sea side in the lap of ease
It was like salt in my wounds, man, I won't ever be free
Though alone drunk on a beach ain't such a bad way to be
[Chorus]
Babe, babe, babe, you can't never die
I said your daddy's gonna buy you a big black ride
You see the bare legged children by the side of the road
I get to feeling so low low low low low, and Lord, I know not why!
[Verse 3]
I said, why d'you people such an ugly place?
I said that anyone would think you came from outer space
She held her skin to yours, when they brought you out
You've ruined all that she had left, but ain't that obvious now
[Chorus]
Babe, babe, babe, you can't never die
Your daddy's gonna buy you a big black ride
See the bare legged children by the side of the road
I get to feeling so low low low low low, and Lord, I know not why!
