Long Sleeves Songtext

von Black Stone Cherry

All night long
Thunder calls
Can't get away from here
Songbirds calling
Sky keeps falling
Ain't no use in fear

Every night it
Comes back to me
Everything I've seen

Don't ask why
I've seen children die
Watched men take their lifes
I've seen women cry
My mama always said
To wear long sleeves

Pushed through the sand
In my hand
Drop o' water for my soul
Make daddy proud
Can't let him down
God, I gotta get back home

Every night it
Comes back to me
Everything I've seen

Don't ask why
I've seen children die
Watched men take their lives
I've seen women cry
My mama always said
To wear long sleeves
(Sleeves, sleeves)

-Solo-

Don't ask why
I've seen children die
Watched men take their lives
I've seen women cry
My mama always said
My mama always said
To wear long sleeves
