The Deeper In

By the time you were born there were four other siblings
 With your mama awaiting your daddy in jail
 And your oldest brother was away at a home
 And you didn't meet him 'til you were 19 years old
 Old enough to know better, old enough to know better
 But you took to his jaw line and long sandy hair
 And he made you feel like none off the others
 And the way he looked at you touched you deep down in there
 ♪
 So you jumped on his bike and rode into the sunset
 But the sequel it started with the next morning sun
 And the dew on the bike seat and you all a glow
 From the love he put in you and a life on the run
 So you moved to a small town, then to another
 Then to another with another on its way
 And you both swore to God you'd keep it together
 And the state wouldn't take your babies away
 Now, the District Attorney said he might have forgiven
 You had lots of reasons to turn out this way
 But he'll throw you in jail for them four little babies
 You made and delivered along the way
 ♪
 Last night you had a dream about a Lord so forgiving
 He might show compassion for a heathen he damned
 You awoke in a jail cell, alone and so lonely
