Playboy Mommy

In my platforms I hit the floor

Fell face down

Didn't help my brain out

Then the baby came before I found

The magic how to keep her happy

I never was the fantasy of what you want

Wanted me to be

But don't judge me so harsh, little girl

So, you got a playboy mommy

But when you tell them my name

And you want to cross that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm

'Cause they know your playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

From here to Birmingham

I got a few friends

I never was there, was there when it counts

I get my way, you're so like me

You seemed ashamed

Ashamed that I was

A good friend of American soldiers

I'll say it loud here, by your grave

Those angels can't ever take my place

Don't judge me so harsh, little girl

You got a playboy mommy

But when you tell them my name

And you want to cross that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm

'Cause they know your playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

You tell 'em my name

I got a few friends

Somewhere, where the orchids grow

I can't find those church bells

That played when you died

Played Gloria

Talking 'bout Hosanah

Don't judge me so harsh, little girl

You got a playboy mommy

Come home!

But when you tell them soldiers my name

And cross that bridge all on your own

Little girl, they'll do you no harm

'Cause they know your playboy mommy

But I'll be home, I'll be home

To take you in my arms
