Carolina Rain - Someone's Child Lyrics
Carolina Rain Lyrics
Someone's Child Lyrics
A SPANDEX DRESS AND FISHNET HOSE
IN THE POURING RAIN IT WAS BITTER COLD
THEY FOUND HER THERE LYING IN THE STREET
WHERE SHED BEEN TURNING TRICKS SINCE SEVENTEEN
AND NO ONE KNEW HER NAME
NO ONE GAVE A SECOND THOUGHT WHEN THEY PUT HER IN A COUNTY GRAVE
CHORUS
SHE WAS SOMEONES CHILD, A PRECIOUS MIRACLE
SHE MADE SOMEONE SMILE, BORN BEAUTIFUL
EVEN THOUGH SHE HEARD A DIFFERENT DRUM
AND WALKED A DIFFERENT MILE
SHE WAS SOMEONES CHILD
SHADY SCHEMES AND CROOKED DEALS
HE WOULD TELL YOU LIES WITH NERVES OF STEEL
ITS JUST WHITE COLLAR CRIME NO ONE GETS HURT
HE SAYS IF YOURE THAT DUMB ITS JUST WHAT YOU DESERVE
NOW HE CANT STAND THE SMELL
OR THE LIGHT THATS ALWAYS ON IN HIS EIGHT BY TEN FOOT CELL
CHORUS
THEY STRIPPED HIM BARE AND BEAT HIM DOWN
AND GIFTED HIM WITH A THORNY CROWN
WHO WAS THIS MAN THIS REBELIOUS JEW
WHO DIED FOR ME, WHO DIED FOR YOU
CHORUS
IN THE POURING RAIN IT WAS BITTER COLD
THEY FOUND HER THERE LYING IN THE STREET
WHERE SHED BEEN TURNING TRICKS SINCE SEVENTEEN
AND NO ONE KNEW HER NAME
NO ONE GAVE A SECOND THOUGHT WHEN THEY PUT HER IN A COUNTY GRAVE
CHORUS
SHE WAS SOMEONES CHILD, A PRECIOUS MIRACLE
SHE MADE SOMEONE SMILE, BORN BEAUTIFUL
EVEN THOUGH SHE HEARD A DIFFERENT DRUM
AND WALKED A DIFFERENT MILE
SHE WAS SOMEONES CHILD
SHADY SCHEMES AND CROOKED DEALS
HE WOULD TELL YOU LIES WITH NERVES OF STEEL
ITS JUST WHITE COLLAR CRIME NO ONE GETS HURT
HE SAYS IF YOURE THAT DUMB ITS JUST WHAT YOU DESERVE
NOW HE CANT STAND THE SMELL
OR THE LIGHT THATS ALWAYS ON IN HIS EIGHT BY TEN FOOT CELL
CHORUS
THEY STRIPPED HIM BARE AND BEAT HIM DOWN
AND GIFTED HIM WITH A THORNY CROWN
WHO WAS THIS MAN THIS REBELIOUS JEW
WHO DIED FOR ME, WHO DIED FOR YOU
CHORUS
