Leavin' Anna

The Florida sunshine baked my bones
 All my life I been cold
 Bronchitus winston cigarettes
 I laid in bed alone
 A Texas smile and a backbone heart
 Stole me from my home
 One more city and one less child
 We traveled where the money was good
 New York city lights stay on
 An' Philadelphia knows
 A workin' man is a workin' man
 Makes a delicate flower grow
 Cormac words too many to read
 Livin' in my mind
 Secrets stashed on top o' the others
 Troubles left behind
 Ain't a soul on earth I can call a friend
 When darkness settles in
 Another man with another job
 Don't help me in my pain
 New York city lights stay on
 An' Philadelphia knows
 A workin' man is a workin' man
 Makes a delicate flower grow
 God helps you when ya help yourself
 How's he gonna help me
 That boy o' mine thinks double time
 An' a nobody thinks o' me
 Anna cried all the rivers wide
 From the Rio Grand to here
 Homes got flooded and people got drowned
 Leavin' anna sufferin
 New York city lights stay on
 An' Philadelphia knows
 A workin' man is a workin' man
 Makes a delicate flower grow
 New York city lights stay on
 An' Philadelphia knows
 A workin' man is a workin' man
 Makes a delicate flower grow
