Lili Haydn - Take Somebody Home lyrics

Written by lili haydn & peter rafelson She rides down fairfax with her mommy Canter's on the right, the night is foggy Not foggy enough, she still sees the pain in their eyes She makes mom explain the reason why They live on the street, we just drive by But not fast enough, she still sees the blame in her eyes Oh can we please take somebody home There's room in our house where it's not cold Why can't we please take somebody home The little girl cries with love in her eyes Mom don't make that much in a day She knows they ain't that far away From being denied She barely survives in this land Oh can we please take somebody home There's room in our house where it's not cold Why can't we please take somebody home The little girl cries with love in her eyes Mom tries to explain "supply side" Not much trickles down, justice belie The eyes of a child see through these civilized lies Oh can we please take somebody home There's room in our house where it's not cold Why can't we please take somebody home The little girl cries with love in her eyes
