Rocky World Music Lyrics

My hands are wrapped in your raven hair

In the faded picture on the back stair

We were narrow, we were steady, trembling and ready

To give it hell in this rocky world



You said do I look like I could be a strong mother?

And raise the good side of a young daughter

In the hotel Shangri La, let me tell you

I've been thinking of her in this rocky world



Chicago is heavy but I can't turn around

I'm smuggling that whiskey over flesh and pound

Michigan I worry and Suzy I'm sorry

That I lost you out there in the rocky world



Would you build me a building, a chapel out there

At the top of the hill in the still blue air

Near the weather vane, by the track and train?

I'll be looking for you in the rocky world



She's turning twenty, and out on the make

Pounding the blacktop with a habit to shake

She's looking for a manger in the eyes of a stranger

Down in the streets of a rocky world



Jenny has religion, she sinks in a chair

She's made a decision to color her hair

The black man cut the sugar cane and she watches the rain

In a building away from the rocky world



Yeah, I'll tell you something I'll never forget

The sight of you in the silhouette

Outside Sault. Ste. Marie, ah you really threw me

When you pulled me down to your rocky bed



In a crowded room, I stood there empty

Looking for salvation and glory be

When a shot turned my head and I saw you instead

Walking into my rocky world
