Donna
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
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
