lyrics

daddy's daddy's dying
momma's daddy's done
baby daddy crying
baby momma won

we've got to lose some to gain
we've got to listen to speak
softly now, don't burn out when you're older
or you'll have nothing to leave

baby takes a blessing
daddy takes a breath
baby's close to walking
daddy's close to death

we've got to ask to be answered
we've got to take to receive
sink your teeth into your destination
or you'll know nothing but grief

baby be careful of walking
you might crack your momma's spine
baby be careful of running
you might run out of time

someday you will listen
it will be too late
you took all your money
didn't ask for change

we've got the right to be silent
we've got no reason to fear
daddy's here to repair what's been broken
or make it all disappear

carousel on the water
circles around the shore
daddy becomes father
but you're still on the horse
