Tracey Thorn
Shoot Me Down
[Verse 1]
Hush your mouth now honey mine
Have you been waiting all this time
To so loudly disagree
Kick the feet from under me?
Did you come here to shoot me down
Bury me on my own home ground?
Oh, my own home ground
[Verse 2]
Hold your tongue now mother mine
For you've held it all this time
And now's no time to shout and swear
That you despise the things I care about
For your territory
Will always be miles and miles from me
From me, miles and miles from me, hey
[Verse 3]
Stop my mouth with kisses dear
Forever they will keep me here
And these drunken blasphemies
Must never make us enemies
For we'll have to meet once more
Sober and as strongly bound as before
As before, as strongly bound as before, hey
