Song for Judee

You wrote "The Kiss" and it is beautiful

I can listen again and again

You never really got a break

From the car wrecks and the pain

[Chorus:]

You loved the Sons of the Pioneers

And the Hollywood cowboy stars

You were just trying to put a hand

To where we are

Where we are

Where we are

Living in a '55 Cadillac

Five people sleep in shifts

Robbing liquor stores and going back

With the cash and rolling in it

[Chorus:]

You loved the Sons of the Pioneers

And the Hollywood cowboy stars

You were just trying to put a hand

To where we are

You never talked about your past

About the drugs and walking in the streets

They found you with a needle in your arm

Beloved books strewn around at your feet

[Chorus:]

You loved the Sons of the Pioneers

And the Hollywood cowboy stars

You were just trying to put a hand

To where we are

[Chorus:]

You loved the Sons of the Pioneers

And the Hollywood cowboy stars

You were just trying to put a hand

To where we are

Where we are

Where we are

Where we are
