White Picket Fence Lyrics - Singles - Joe Purdy

Mother come quick the doctor is sick lying there on the street 

Circus Performers they all tried to warn us of the blistering heat 

And there aint no water so what is the bother with trying to drink 

What's the new plan when your medicine man has gone too dead to think 

And I saw you looking out, I saw you looking at me (repeat) 

And that white picket fence that you had as a kid 

It aint white anymore and the wood has gone bad 

The streets are all empty, the stores have been picked clean, and the lights are all out 

the doors are all closed, and the windows all broken, and the buildings torn down 

And the dogs own the night but they all lost their bite and they're too tired to growl 

We tried throwing stones but you can't stop the moans of that hovering crowd 

I saw you crying out, I saw you crying at night (repeat) 

And that white picket fence that you used to have 

It aint white anymore and the paint has gone bad

Well the drugs have worn off and there's blood in your cough and your starting to turn 

And the angels will rise as we blankly stare at their growing concern 

And the preacher still preaches from outside the steeple saying when will they learn 

But the congregations gone they're on the church lawn and they're watching it burn 

I saw you screaming out, I saw you screaming out (repeat) 

And that white picket fence that you had when you were young 

It aint white anymore and the damage has been done 

Photos 

You're too sick to scream and the last of your dreams they got taken last night 

And they're growing impatient now all of the nations are starting to fight 

And the mothers are crying, the children are dying, and you're losing your sight 

Yeah and it won't be long now, we'll all be gone, walking into the light 

I saw you reaching out, I saw you reaching for me (repeat) 

And that white picket fence that you had as a kid 

It aint shining anymore and it never ever did
