murder ballad (the innocent cry) - amy petty lyrics

Loading...

i never thought i’d have to have this talk with you
i never thought that this is what it would come to
in the middle of the desert in the midday sun
you with a shovel and me with a gun

remember you asked me if i trusted you?
you said “babe, if you trust me, i’ll make your dreams come true”
“all you gotta do” you said “is watch the door”
then you walked in the diner and yelled “everybody hit the floor”

you broke my innocence and you stole my pride
you took my emotions on a daredevil ride
you told me you loved me, that was a boldfaced lie
but you got what you wanted, you made the innocent cry

this thing it went as well as these things go
“gimme all your money” you say and they do as they’re told
but the girl behind the counter, she was calm and cool
see, i was looking at her when she smiled at you and then i knew

but baby this is not my first rodeo
before you came to town i was a one-man show
did you really think that i would take the fall
you two lovebirds, you don’t know me at all

i didn’t want to have to have this talk with you
and it’s funny that this is what it would come to
no i didn’t want to have to hear you plead for your life
i just wanted you to listen as i told you why

why i broke her innocence and why i stole her pride
why i took her emotions on a daredevil ride
and she told me she loved you and boy that is why
well is this what you wanted? no no no no
well i got what i wanted, i made the innocent cry
