BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - Family Song lyrics

rate me

Well ya know when you're young, <br />

There's such a distance between you and your family.<br />

Just can't see things from the same point of view.<br />

<br />

Papa wants a lawyer and mama she wants an author, <br />

And all you want is for them to want you.<br />

<br />

Well, I saw lot of bad signs and we had some real bad timesback on the east coast.<br />

And I guess you could say it took california to bring us close.<br />

There was a lot of hard livin' and some stone cold women on the east coast.<br />

And I saw my papa turn away when I need him the most.<br />

And california, she's an angel.<br />

Lo, so heavenly dressed<br />

And the pacific she's a woman<br />

The lord must have loved her best.<br />

I got a california rainbow to come give them thunder clouds a rest<br />

And the mountain is my friend now, she put me to her test<br />

Well you know every father has dreams and schemes fo his own kid.<br />

And dreaming it ain't been declaired no capital crime<br />

But I just hope when I grow up to have my own kids<br />

I'll love them all I can and let 'em make their own minds<br />

Now you know how a mother can hold the son through understanding.<br />

And my father he once held me close by crying.<br />

Whoa, and my mama's love it don't ever leave me standing.<br />

And papa's love it just leaves me smiling.<br />

Whoa, and my mama she's a rainbow, <br />

Gotta see hen on sunday when she's dressed<br />

Whoa, and my papa he's a good man, he gives me and mama his best.<br />

Whoa, my mama she's a rainbow, come to give them thunder clouds a rest.<br />

And my family is my friend now california put us through her test.</
