Donna Lyrics

I see the Donna lighting candles every night

We speak in whispers, when the rain comes we get wild

Oh, brother tell me why your denim is so blue

Don't take the dollar it'll make fool of you

Stand up get counted, brother, tear this statue down

When it gets rowdy Donna lets her hair hang down

I see the future in your dilated eyes

I can't keep running when there's no place left to hide

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running when there's trouble on my mind

They call you prodigal

They call you wayward son

Unload that rifle, you don't have to shoot that gun

I see the sunset through the shadow on their eyes

They send our children to defend the bottom line

I taste the tear gas

Wash the pepper from my eye

When it gets rowdy, I stand by the Donna's side

She'll lay a curse down on the prideful and the damned

I can't keep running, till I know which son I am

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running when there's trouble on my mind

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running, I can't keep

I can't keep running when there's trouble on my mind

They'll call you sinner, they will call you alien

Spit at your children for the color of your skin

They'll brandish weapons to defend their valiant cause

I can't keep running, till I know that trouble's gone
