redneck lullaby

ruby fields

show my girl my mother my world

i know you're not proud of what i've become

getting drunk on weeknights starting fistfights

where went that girl that had good fair dinkum fun?

and i'll be honest i'm afraid cause now it's only a matter of days

before i need to grow the fuck up and travel the world and get a job and i'm stuck

show my girl my mother my world

there's nothing you could've done different or better

house prices are rising it's not surprising i'm moving away

but what would you know i'm stuck on another three day bender

according to you and dad

and i'll be honest i'm afraid cause now it's only a matter of days

before it all comes down

so mum please sing me a lullaby because i'm finding it hard to sleep at night

grab a beer and get on with it

this is the time for exploration so i'm not offering an excuse

but i'm sorry the last person i wanted to disappoint was you

and this is a theme song for us all some could say a redneck lullaby

if you're young and terrified and just trying to have a good time
