I put our little baby to bed last night
She was sleeping real good while
I tucked her in tight
I looked at her once

Then I looked at her twice
Her little legs are longer
And I'm running out of time
The boys are gonna chase her

I'll be standing in line our baby's gone
Up at 7:30 she comes into our room
She wants to make her breakfast
But she can't find her spoon

We wake up and try to shake the sandman
Out of our eyes
She's already got her clothes on much to our surprise
She did it all by herself and we realize our baby's gone

Three years old and she's the queen of the world
Humpty Dumpty's falling down
Little Jack Horner's on the boredom border
Oh mamma what do we do now

Playing outside her little face to the wind
The hours go by her strength is wearing thin
She doesn't call for daddy she's a big girl now
Her mamma looks in wonder and she don't know how

How our baby girl escaped us no more cuddling now
Our baby's gone
Three years old and she's the queen of the world
Humpty Dumpty's falling down

Little Jack Horner's on the boredom border
Oh mamma what do we do now
Our baby's gone

Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
