You said you want to be outside and you want to feel alive I said I didn't want to move I just wanted to survive So I sit here waiting for the sun to come And I watched it rise like we'd never done I want to k** myself just to k** all the pain But then you'd know you'd feel like you're the one to blame You were just too young and just too smart Probably the best candidate for a broken heart Rock and roll my little girl Rock and roll in your big big world Rock and roll my little girl Rock and roll in your big big world In a drunken state I call your name From the bottom of my soul to the blood in my veins Those days in the car when I couldn't pull through You sang to me and all I wanted was you I can't seem to do anything right anymore How the days are so long and the nights are a blur
I want you to know that I'll always be the only one there While you listen to his heartbeat While he runs his hands through your hair Rock and roll my little girl Rock and roll in your big big world Each day he works past the 9 to 5 Tell me tell me how does he know if you're even still alive You made a portrait of myself and it made me cry And through all the tears I lost I looked myself in the eye What kind of man have I become that I have to let this go Fate has made a fool of me I'll reap now what I sow We were just two people alike indignity Felt the ancient grudge to the mutiny of me And I guess this is where we'll end our scene Where my civil blood leaves my seething hands unclean Rock and roll my little girl Rock and roll in your big big world
