Children (Album Version)- The Mavericks[00:00:01]
A child who is raised by an unworthy hand[00:00:22]
Has less of a chance being a man[00:00:27]
Who will try to remember and then understand[00:00:32]
Why a mother would cry[00:00:37]
While a husband lay dead[00:00:40]
Shot down by a gun of a runaway train[00:00:43]
Called life in the fast lane[00:00:48]
It all ends the same[00:00:51]
Well the same children's lives[00:00:53]
They will always regret[00:00:56]
Are the children who never forget[00:00:59]
A man ends up tired and walking alone[00:01:13]
On a street corner singing for a penny a song[00:01:18]
What he cannot remember was never his own[00:01:23]
That's the answer he gives[00:01:29]
When he speaks of his home[00:01:31]
Well the streets are my life[00:01:34]
I don't know anymore[00:01:36]
Where the children's are junkies[00:01:39]
And the ladies are whores[00:01:42]
Well the same children's lives[00:01:45]
They will always regret[00:01:47]
Are the children who never forget[00:01:49]
Goodnight goodnight sweet child[00:01:59]
Why don't you dream with the angels[00:02:04]
To forget for awhile[00:02:06]
To forget of the life[00:02:09]
That's been handed to you[00:02:12]
Where everything's real [00:02:14]
Yet nothing is true[00:02:17]
Well perhaps you can change[00:02:20]
What the cards always read[00:02:22]
For the children who never forget[00:02:25]
For a time they were counting[00:02:50]
You out of this race[00:02:52]
You stood up like a champion[00:02:55]
That had fallen like grace[00:02:58]
Never showing the anguish[00:03:00]
That had covered your face[00:03:03]
You were raped and forgotten[00:03:06]
Left to die in disgrace[00:03:08]
Shot down by a gun of a runaway train[00:03:11]
Called life in the fast lane[00:03:17]
It all ends the same[00:03:19]
Well the same children's lives[00:03:22]
They will always regret[00:03:25]
Are the children who never forget[00:03:27]
Goodnight goodnight sweet child[00:03:37]
Why don't you dream with the angels[00:03:41]
To forget for awhile[00:03:44]
To forget of the life[00:03:46]
That's been handed to you[00:03:49]
Where everything's real [00:03:52]
Yet nothing is true[00:03:54]
Well perhaps you can change[00:03:57]
What the cards always read[00:03:59]
For the children who never forget[00:04:02]
Goodnight goodnight sweet child[00:04:11]
Why don't you dream with the angels[00:04:16]
To forget for awhile[00:04:19]
To forget of the life[00:04:21]
That's been handed to you[00:04:24]
Where everything's real [00:04:27]
Yet nothing is true[00:04:29]
Goodnight goodnight sweet child[00:04:33]
Why don't you dream with the angels[00:04:37]
To forget for awhile[00:04:41]
