sweet child

jelly roll

yeah

when the pain gets loud you gotta sing louder

waylon and willie

who likes domestic dispute?

her heart wears the scars and a bruise from abuse

cries for help but her family couldn't hear

so she's clawin' at the face of a demon in the mirror

heartbreak familiar

will she ever find love?

prays to the sky

will the stars ever align

or winds up fallin' to her knees

can't stand the pain

cuts so deep

usein' drugs as a band aid

champagne bring snakes to her landscape

barefoot and broken glass

dancin' while the band plays

hard to sing your favorite song with a sad face

life's so short

gotta treat it like a drag race

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

love is life

life is hard

it becomes all the same

dance wild

sing loud

then drown out all your pain

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

yeah

she was only five when her uncle first touched her

daddy ain't around

step mother don't love her

she ain't understand

her whole life she would suffer

she was 17 when she first fucked for some money

it's so easy for you to call a girl a whore

when you don't know nothin' about her except what she wore

while you sit on your throne

you spit on your floor

you don't know that poor girl

her soul's been at war

shit's so real i had to write it in a song

so tell me

who do you think is right or wrong?

they blame it on her but what about the man spendin' his families money

cheatin' on his wife all along

i'm just sayin'

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

love is life

life is hard

it becomes all the same

dance wild

sing loud

then drown out all your pain

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

yeah

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier

sweet child of mine

things are gonna get easier

things are gonna get easier
