Testo Little Sister

Little boy's supposed to do what he's told
Little girl's supposed to polish her toes
Maybe they're together when they're older and all grown up
Daddy's supposed to put bread on the table
Daddy's gone and your mama ain't able
Are you hungry when the money's all run out?

Tell me little dear if you only lived here Did you really ever live at all
Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze
And the spring turn into fall
Just listen to your brother
You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls
I know that you think you're growing
But you're just tall

Ooh-ooh-ooh

A really pretty girl in a really small town
Easy to believe you that you never settle down
Mama told your mama just to say not long ago
You want a baby, the same as your friends
Ring off on your finger, and your story will end You'll be lookin' 'round, wonder where did the time go?

Tell me little dear if you only lived here
Did you really ever live at all
Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze
And the spring turn into fall
Just listen to your brother
You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls
I know that you think you're growing
But you're just tall

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Woah-oh
Don't you think I'd know
There never was a red light in our town
Woah-oh
I hate to say I told you so
But you got to go right now

Tell me little dear if you only lived here
Did you really ever live at all
Cause you'd be amazed in the summer of a daze
And the spring turn into fall
Just listen to your brother
You can run in the cover of the night sky when it falls
I know that you think you're growing
But you're just tall

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
