The Be Good Tanyas Ootischenia Lyrics

(Ford/Parton/Klein)

Inside of everything around me, I
Hit the floor, and my feet kept moving, I
Looked forwards, and never backwards, I was
Out the door like a rollin' soldier
Impossible to keep a straight line,
Too young to keep these bitter hearts
And, all around me, somebody's singin',
"Get back, get back..."

Long hair comin' down her shoulders
She is tired, and feeling so much older
So tear the pages from the family Bible
It came down upon the women for survival
It came down upon the women for survival

And,I wasn't meanin' nothing at all,
You stop me if I get it wrong.
I think I'm hearin' somebody sayin':
"I'm gonna spank ya' 'til you can't sit down!"

Bust apart or we'll lose each other
The constellation of my sisters and brothers
Are spreading out into the darkness,
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this
Goodbye to you in the sadness of this

Impossible to keep a straight line,
Too young to keep these bitter hearts,
And, all around me, somebody singin
"Get back, get back..."
