John Prine - Unwed Fathers Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • In an appalachian, greyhound station
  • She sits there waiting, in a family way
  • Goodbye brother, tell mom I love her
  • Tell all the others, Ill write someday
  • Chorus:
  • From an teenage lover, to an unwed mother
  • Kept undercover, like some bad dream
  • While unwed fathers, they cant be bothered
  • They run like water, through a mountain stream
  • In a cold and gray town, a nurse says lay down
  • this aint no playground, and this aint home
  • Someones children, out having children
  • In a gray stone building, all alone
  • On somewhere else bound, smokey mountain greyhound
  • She bows her head down, hummin lullabies
  • your daddy never, meant to hurt you ever
  • he just dont live here, but youve got his eyes
  • Repeat chorus:
  • Well, they run like water,
  • Through a mountain stream
