Go to sleep my dead end angel 
Say goodnight dear precious one 
For I know you're empty handed 
And all the police carry guns

Whisper to me in the morning 
And I'll kiss your blues away 
For I know your body's aching 
And the lynch mob's on the way

Just to hear your footsteps climbing up the stairs 
Just to live one single day without a single care

Go to sleep my dead end angel 
Say goodnight dear precious one 
For I know you're empty handed 
And all the police carry guns

Just to hear your footsteps climbing up the stairs 
Just to live one single day without a single care

Go to sleep my dead end angel 
Say goodnight dear precious one 
For I know you're empty handed 
And all the police carry guns
And all the police carry guns
