lyrics

Baby Doll


Maybe I should just stop running,
Make a stand and fold this hand,
I’m holding on too tight.
The joker’s wearing kind of thin,
The queen of hearts she tells me,
“Boy you’d better make a choice, you’re wearing out your welcome here.”

La de da, just like a boy,
But you know I wanna be a man,
And girl I know you’re not a toy,

Can you help me understand?
Can you help me understand?

Night she sets out on the city,
I wanna come in from the cold,
But maybe I’m too old to ever change my weary ways.
Baby doll, baby doll, do I disappoint you,
Looking for the answers,
Losing sight of what I got in my two hands

La de da, just like a boy,
But you know I wanna be a man,

Oh girl I know you’re not a toy,
Can you help me understand?
Can you help me understand?
Can you help me understand?


Bounced around for all these years,
Just like a pinball in the back room
Of some bar you’re never been.
Waiting for someone to play,
But it’s closing time and everybody’s holding hands or
Drunk or both, oh God am I too late?

La de da, just like a boy,
But you know I wanna be a man,
Oh girl I know you’re not a toy,

Can you help me understand?
Can you help me understand?
Can you help me understand?
