Shawn Mullins - Lullaby

She grew up with
the children of the stars in the
hollywood hills and the boulevard
her parents threw big parties
everyone was there
they hung out with folks like dennis
hopper, bob seeger, and sonny and cher
but she feels safe now
in the bar on fairfax
and from the stage I can tell that
she can't let go and she can't relax
and just before
she hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby, I sing
everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
she still lives with her mom
outside the city
down that street about a half a mile
and all her friends tell her she's so pretty
but she'd be a whole lot prettier
if she smiled once in a while
'cause even her smile
looks like a frown
she's seen her share of devils
in this angel town
everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
I told her I ain't so sure
about this place
it's hard to play a gig in this town
and keep a straight face
seems like everybody's got a plan
it's kind of like nashville with a tan
but, everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
everything's gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
