In my platforms I hit the floor.
Fell face down. Didn't help my brain out.
Then the baby came before I found
The
magic how to keep her happy.
I never was the fantasy of what you want,
Wanted me to be.
But don't judge me so harsh
little girl.
So you got a playboy mommy.
But when you tell them my name
You wanna cross that bridge all on your own.
Little
girl they'll do you no harm,
Because they know your playboy mommy.
But when you tell 'em my name, from here to Birmingham
I
got a few friends.
I never was there, was there when it counts.
I get my way,
You're so like me.
You seemed ashamed,
Ashamed that
I was
A good friend of American soldiers.
I'll say it loud here by your grave,
Those angels can't ever take my place.
Don't
judge me so harsh little girl.
You got a playboy mommy.
But when you tell 'em my name
You wanna cross that bridge
all on your own.
Little girl, they'll do you no harm,
Because they know your playboy mommy.
But you just tell 'em
my name,
You tell 'em my name,
I got a few friends.
Somewhere, where the orchids grow
I can't find those church bells
That played when you died,
Played Gloria, talking
'bout
Hosanna.
Don't judge me so harsh little girl,
You got a playboy mommy.
Come home.
But when you tell them soldiers my name
And
cross that bridge all on your own.
Little girl, they'll do you no harm,
Because they know your playboy mommy.
But
I'll be home, I'll be home,
To take you in my arms.
