Remember what I said Forget all of that Just hold out a little bit longer You said yeah you know And you promised that you would Just as soon as you got a little stronger Well darling you and me We have always been in trouble And we ain't going no place but down And look at how we live In a pile of broken rubble Making crazy dying sounds Well go ahead pretend That you're your daddy's little girl For me I'm through pretending You can come along dry Or stay here with your bottle Either way I'm gone In the morning In the morning Gunfire is mixing With the Spanish music Which is drifting like smoke Through my window
And ricochet sounds Resounding through the valley And I'm staring like a ghost out my window This neighborhood of ours Is really gone down the drain Or maybe it was always this way People living like we do In rooms thick with dust While the fruit on the trees decays Go ahead pretend That you're your daddy's little girl For me I'm through pretending You can come along dry Or stay here with your bottle Either way I'm gone in the morning Go ahead baby Go into bed Curl around your fog And forget every dream You ever had Go ahead baby Go into bed And look at your face in the morning In the morning
