I n the quiet morning there was much despair
A nd in the hours that followed no one could repair
T hat poor girl
T ossed by the tides of misfortune
B arely here to tell her tale
R olled in on a sea of disaster
Rolled o ut on a mainline r ail
S he once walked right at my side I'm sure she walked by you
Her s triding steps could not deny torm ent from a child who k new
T hat in the quiet morning there would be despair
A nd in the hours that followed no one could repa-i r
T hat poor girl
S he cried out her song so loud
I t was heard the whole world round
A symphony of violence
T he great southwest unb ound
L a la la la la la la la
L a la la la la la la a la
L a la la la la la la la
