Six O'Clock News
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.
Copper on the corner and he loaded two rounds
And I can't even get inside to talk you down
Peter, sweet baby, where'd you get that gun
You spend half your life trying to turn the other half around
And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Your face is all over six o'clock news
They cleared the street and then they closed the schools
I can't even get inside
Did you lose your head when the farm went down
Was is when your daddy died after he moved to town
And I know your momma calls you good for nothing
She says her baby is a failure and she don't want you calling
And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Your face is all over six o'clock news
They cleared the street and then they closed the schools
I can't even get inside
Peter, sweet baby, there's something I need to say to you
I'm gonna have your baby this coming June
We could get a little place down by Gilmour Park
You could do a little time and save my broken heart
And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Your face is all over six o'clock news
They cleared the street and then they closed the schools
I can't even get inside
And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Copper when ahead and he just shot you through
Now you're lying dead on the avenue
And I can't feel my broken heart
And I can't feel my broken heart
