John Hiatt - Hurt My Baby lyrics

No need to be explicit Anyone can see Injury was permanent The wound was really deep Doesn't talk about it much I listen when she does And when she's in that distant place I know it's just because Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt my girl Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt somebody in this mean ol' world She's developed all these nervous ticks To prove she's still alive Does ninety down to zero Back in over drive Her sleep is just a nightmare state She really gets no rest Till someone has come forward Till one of us confess Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt my girl Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt somebody in this mean ol' world Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt my girl Somebody hurt my baby Somebody hurt somebody in this mean ol' world
