Sweet melissa, I often pray for you

I hope your suffering was brief

I hope the angels that watch over all little children

Came for you and took you someplace beautiful and sweet

Aahh..

Suffer the little children

Dear melissa, I often think of you

Everytime I hold my baby in my arms

I say a prayer for your mama and daddy too

I know they miss you, miss you since you're gone

Suffer the little children

At the hands of evil men

No baby dolls, no teddy bears

No lullabies for them

Every mother's nightmare

Will it ever end

Suffer the little children

At the hands of evil men

You who done the deed better do some prayin' too

Better hope that god's forgivin' like they say

Cause somewhere, somebody keeps a list

Of the evils that men do

An' your name's right up there

I heard `em say

Aahh..

Suffer the little children

At the hands of evil men

No baby dolls, no teddy bears

No lullabies for them

Every mother's nightmare

Will it ever end

Suffer the little children

At the hands of evil men
