Buddy Miller - Baby Don't Let Me Down lyrics

Start up the engine and get back home
 Hurry go tell mother
Johnny got a gun to shoot a squirrel
 And he put down your brother Daddy ain't no where to be found
 And it's getting way past midnight 
Mama she's left here to cry alone 
While I steal a kiss in the moonlight This place is slow and I just wanna go find myself in an all night town
 It's more than I deserve I know but baby don't let me down
 Ddt done poisoned me better than the bugs in the cotton 
Now I gotta have another drink to k** all the pains I've gotten All the crops have gone to seed
 The maize is turning to clover
 Silo's empty gin's closed down
 But some things you never get over
