Lucy's Song
Do you remember that rally back in college when we met?
I never told you this, 'cause I know you'll be upset
But it was actually by accident that I was even there
I happened to be headed to the grocery store across the square
When you made me stop to hold your banner
While you yelled at that cop
Then before I could protest, we were under arrest
Remember how he only had one pair of cuffs?
So he cuffed us together, like I was one of the Suffs
And ever since I've been here by your side
'Cause I just really love being along for the ride
But I've done my time, I've fought my last war
I'm not marching anymore
Please don't try to change my mind, 'cause I'm sure
I'm not marching anymore
'Cause for the last ten years, we've marched and we've thrived
We've planned and we've screamed
We've starved and survived
We beat every odd
And, my God, look at all that we've won
But I'm tired and sore, I've settled my score
I'm not marching anymore
Let the next girl have her world changed forever on her way to the store
I'm not marching anymore
But I hope you know
Even though we haven't
Even though you didn't
Even when you drove me to my wit's end
The best thing I've ever been is your friend
Sorry if you never knew that before
Alice, I'm not marching anymore
But I'll never be far from you
You'll find a way
You always do
I never told you this, 'cause I know you'll be upset
But it was actually by accident that I was even there
I happened to be headed to the grocery store across the square
When you made me stop to hold your banner
While you yelled at that cop
Then before I could protest, we were under arrest
Remember how he only had one pair of cuffs?
So he cuffed us together, like I was one of the Suffs
And ever since I've been here by your side
'Cause I just really love being along for the ride
But I've done my time, I've fought my last war
I'm not marching anymore
Please don't try to change my mind, 'cause I'm sure
I'm not marching anymore
'Cause for the last ten years, we've marched and we've thrived
We've planned and we've screamed
We've starved and survived
We beat every odd
And, my God, look at all that we've won
But I'm tired and sore, I've settled my score
I'm not marching anymore
Let the next girl have her world changed forever on her way to the store
I'm not marching anymore
But I hope you know
Even though we haven't
Even though you didn't
Even when you drove me to my wit's end
The best thing I've ever been is your friend
Sorry if you never knew that before
Alice, I'm not marching anymore
But I'll never be far from you
You'll find a way
You always do
