Lyrics

[00:10.73] Maureen's out on the street again
[00:13.05] Didn't get the job 'cause she missed her appointment
[00:16.01] She don't know if the kids are fed
[00:18.08] They've got holes in their shoes and the cold's coming quick now
[00:21.52] The power's off the bill's ain't paid
[00:23.69] Gotta jump the box for the neighbor's apartment
[00:26.75] Space heaters and welfare checks are as good as it gets
[00:30.03] In this land of hard lessons
[00:34.87] Don't talk to me if you ain't got the answers that I need
[00:40.06] Yeah I've got problems, can't you see I'm trying to solve them?
[00:53.11] Broke it off with the man in her life
[00:55.41] Finally got the courage to pack up and leave now
[00:58.30] She keeps saying she'll be all right
[01:00.58] But in her mind does she really believe it?
[01:03.73] Long lines on Piedmont Street
[01:05.68] But if you hang around you might get a bed there
[01:08.98] Turn around and don't look back
[01:10.82] You've got a piece of your life, so take it and run now
[01:17.02] Don't talk to me if you ain't got the answers that I need
[01:22.12] Yeah I've got problems, can't you see I'm trying to solve them?
[01:35.49] The sun is shining on you
[01:38.01] Maureen may all your dreams come true
[01:51.03] Broke it off with the man in her life
[01:53.72] You know she ain't got nothing better
[01:57.89] Yeah you know she don't but she keeps on believing
[02:22.74] The sun is shining on you
[02:25.30] Maureen may all your dreams come true
[02:43.05]
