Lori McKenna - Lorraine lyrics

The kitchen smells like orange peels Her stomach turns like a spinning wheel Put the baby down in her little seat You should rest now ma'am you should eat It ain't right you been working all day All us kids getting in your way So she goes to bed as soon as the kitchen's clean That don't mean a thing to you, But it does to me... Well I don't know if this part is true How memories lie they way they do But I can see her in our living room With a smile on her face she's dancing to Judy Garland, Carnegie Hall, Sunday April 23rd She said her cousin had a balcony seat That don't mean a thing to you, But it does to me... Oh Lord, am I good enough? When this world spin as hard as it does We both know how it shakes some people up So how did you decide to give me so much love She never said a word to me About dying, about how she'd leave In all her pain she would never cry Me and my best friend Tina would ride our bikes From Lelland Road up Daily Drive We took a paper route one summer time Tina's mom said I was part of the family That don't mean a thing to you But it does to me... No one's had a bigger say In who I am today. I swear I've tried to be worthy of The name they gave me when I was young, But I ain't that pretty and I ain't that brave, And my kids have seen me cry They should have given her name to my sister Marie, That don't mean a thing to you But it does to me...
