Tracy Chapman - 3,000 Miles lyrics

Your rating:

Good girls walk fast

In groups of three

Fast girls walk slow

On side streets

Sometimes the girls who walk alone

Aren´t found for days or weeks



On the busy boulevards

Bad boys call you names

And cruise you hard

Bullies laugh and grin and beat

Your soft skin against

The cold concrete



I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away



Knock you down

Make you bleed

Make you cry

And make you think

I´ll die here soon if I don´t leave

If I don´t leave if I don´t leave



This patch of sky and native ground

Take turns to push and pull you down

Forget trying to live and be happy

I´ll take safe and terror free



I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away



Hit the floor

Shut off the lights

As the bullets fly

Terror rules the dark night

Dogs hang from the trees



This training ground for punks and thieves

Home of poor white retirees

Who didn´t bail

And couldn´t sell

When color made the grass less green



I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away



Apples are filled with razor blades

But fools and innocents believe

That love and faith and truth and beauty

Can make a garden of this human factory



I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away



Bad girls run fast

Leave home alone

No trace or clue of where they´ve gone

Sometimes these girls are never found

Never found never found



I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away

I´m 3000 miles away
