Shannon Murray Somebody Save Me
His father died at the age of 80And he was just a little
boy of three
His momma, she was still a young lady
So she got down on her knees
Crying won't somebody save me
She'd settle for less just to be able
To keep the banker from foreclosing on the farm
And old prince charming didn't like children
So she took her only son into her arms
Crying won't somebody save me
She carried him all the way into the town
Took him to the place where children go
when they have nowhere else to go
she said oh please won't you take me baby
then she turned to face the cold October snow
Crying won't somebody save me
And when he was 12 years old he just ran away
Working on the railroad
Working in the coal mine
Saving childhood for another day
And when he was seventeen he joined the army
Oh and Vietnam would bring him to his knees
Crying won't somebody save me
So I grew up nit knowing my grandpa
Because that little boy grew up to be an angry old man
They say you can't know someone until you have walked in
their shoes
I don't know much, but I know this to be true
So I'm crying, no I don't blame you
