Cheap Shades

Mom went into labor in the middle of the night
 
 Had my dad worried but I came out right
 
 And his cold hand trembled as he cut the chord
 And he drove us both home in a beat up ford
 But nobody asked me
 Nobody asked me
 ♪
 They sprinkle water on my baby head
 ♪
 And made some claims about the dead
 ♪
 Repeated words the ancients said
 ♪
 They drink some wine, they broke some bread
 But nobody asked me
 Nobody asked me
 ♪
 The morning sun is going to wake me
 Herb from the garden going to bake me
 No fast talker going to take me anymore
 
 I used to be a sharp young thing
 Had a bell waiting for a ring
 She was just a stop along my way
 An umbrella for my rainy day
 But I lace my boots
 I pour a glass a wine
 I turn the day over in my mind
 Was I just a stop along her way
 Some cheap shades for a sunny day
 The morning sun is going to wake me
 Herb from the garden going to bake me
 No fast talker going to take me anymore
