John Mellencamp - When Margaret Comes To Town lyrics

When you were a kid you recieved no good instruction And your mother was never nowhere to be found This lies were yelled and the truth was seldom spoken That She likes to keep things upside down When margaret comes to town When your thoughts are twisted and distorted And your children are forced to choose sides and lie down And the kepper is screaming drunk running around naked It She likes to keep things upside down When margaret comes to town Oh, but those who believe in her They cut off their noses to spite their faces Leaving you the little one scared and lonely Who really cares about you now So if you see her coming man you She stays down at the dark end of a frown And just like the sirens that are so sweet singing It When margaret comes to town She likes to keep things upside down When margaret comes to town She likes to keep things upside down When margaret comes to town
