Rodney Crowell - The Cicadas

Nobody's Gonna Tear My Playhouse Down

Don't know a dollar from a donut hole
Don't know tomorrow from a week ago
Don't know the reason why you skipped this town
You had me thinking you might stick around

Well, there ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse down

I hear your name all up and down the road
I'm not ashamed to let my feeling show
Don't know the reason why you changed your tack
I do believe your ship ain't coming back

Well, there ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse down

I know I act the part
A man without a heart
So it would be a lie if I denied it's true

Some say your heart was just an open gate
And from the start, it was a bad mistake

Well, there ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse down

I know I'm acting tough
To prove I'm strong enough
So it would be a lie if I denied it's true

I'm gonna build a house of mud and brick
Seal the walls around me ten feet thick
Construct a bunker out of solid rock
To give me shelter from the bombs you drop

Well, there ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse
Ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse
Ain't nobody gonna tear my playhouse down
