Tar Baby

Granma came to see

Something she could not believe

How could her girl be

So naive

Tar baby, tar baby told
The secret she conceived

That big old smile of yours

Could turn the wind into a song

How could I have doubted

Honey its with me the you belong

Tar baby, tar baby

I love you so

I love you

I like a brand new blade
You cut into my life

Cut through two decades
Like a hot coal on ice

Tar baby, my tar baby

It maybe was meant to be
When I look at you
I cant believe my eyes
And with your magic

I think you just might charm the birds out of the sky

Tar baby, tar baby, tar baby

Came good out of grief

A golden thread inside of the web
That I got caught in

Oh, its a lovers revenge, but out of the pain
Come the best things

You cut into my life

You cut into my life

You cut into my life

You cut into my life

You can turn the wind into a song

Baby baby baby

Its with me you belong
