Joanna This Crazy Life Lyrics

This Crazy Life Lyrics

Little sister a few months old 

Died in the crib it smelled so bad 

Survived on the neighbors' milk you stole 

Never knew mom and you never
saw dad 

Lost in foster home confusion 

In your eyes, love's just an
illusion 

Defensive all your life 

Wish I could make it all a lie


And say its just OK 

And make it go away 



CHORUS:
You, you can lay down mama 

Let me be your cover 

Let me be your
mother 

You, you can break down 

Cause I know that you can take it


Wish I could explain it 

It's just this crazy life 

It's
just this crazy life 



Just 18 had your first child 

You were
beaten, abused, and torn 

Five years on when the paper's filed 

Still you never knew when you were born 

So mama tell me a bedtime
story 

Say a little prayer so not to worry 

Make a wish up in the
air 

Say a word and I'll be there 

To make it all OK 

To make
it go away 



CHORUS: You, you can lay down mama 

Let me be
your cover 

Let me be your mother 

You, you can break down 

Cause I know that you can take it 

Wish I could explain it 

It's
just this crazy life 

It's just this crazy life 



So sleep
tight...
