Guy Clark - Madonna With Child Nineteen Sixty Nine lyrics

Your rating:

Oh the beautiful red-haired

Madonna with child

Sat on the curb wearin' a smile

That doubled up the years

And trebled the miles

And comforts the babe

In the softest of style

She work up in San Francisco

On the day she turned 16

Haight St. was somethin' then

Hey man you should have seen

And she took up with this drummer

In some goodtime Texas scene

And she loved him till the day they

Shipped him back home to Killeen

She said she danced up in North Beach

When the need arose

She's tryin' to start a little trade 

Of makin' people clothes

To feed the child and pay the rent 

And everybody knows 

She's a little hard for 21

But that's the way she goes

She's livin' on next to nothin' 

And memories from the past just a fading flower child

Tryin' to make it last

She's got answers to some questions

I would not dare to ask

Survival's never graceful

When the changes come that fast
