Song For Fay
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sun comes up in the morning
See that sunrise forming
All the pretty colors
Shining down on the water
I don't know about heaven
But I put in my dollar
Let's see what it buys me
Rest and a little dinner
Walking down the highway
Thirsty for some water
Men keep looking my way
Wonder what they're wanting
I don't know about heaven
But I put in my dollar
Mister, what you show me
Don't think I'm not learning
Maybe it's my brother
Always tried to save us
Maybe it's my daddy
He ain't good for nothing
I don't know about heaven
But I put in my dollar
Don't you try and stop me
Til' I get where I'm going
Watching all the women
Making sense of living
All their little babies
Aren't we supposed to have them
I don't know about heaven
But I put in my dollar
Answers for the taking
Now that I'm a woman
Sun comes up in the morning
See that sunrise forming
All the pretty colors
Shining down on the water
I don't know about heaven
But I put in my dollar
I don't know about heaven
But my purse is on my shoulder
I don't know about heaven
But my purse is on my shoulder
