Unruly Child (1991)
(Allison / Free / Gowdy)
When Connie comes it feels like a freight train
Shivers run all down her back
She knows how to keep your long train runnin'
While making you a physical wreck
She takes em' down on the sideline
The boys say, "party time"
She says, "get it up baby be a real straight shooter"
She makes them all feel fine
Her momma cries
How can it be where did i go wrong
She used to be such a good girl
But now she's all alone
She's such an...
Unruly child
She'll steal your heart away
Don't play with fire unruly child
Out on her own running away
Johnny's drinking down on the corner
The boys all have a good time
Don't do no homework homeboy no way
Let's do another line
He found a gun in the graveyard
Late one saturday night
He's going to be a big man someday
Can't wait to get in a fight
His daddy says
How can it be where did i go wrong
He used to be such a good boy
He just wants to be alone
He's such an?
Unruly child
He'll take your life away
You're playing with fire unruly child
Out on your own running away
Playing with fire
The more you play the flames get higher
You're gonna get burned unruly child
Unruly child you're gonna get burned
The preacher says
How can it be where did i go wrong
He used to be such a good boy
Now he's running wild don't be an unruly
