CARRY ME AWAY
by Derrick Johnson & Ellen Gennaro
I see you have a camera, what do you want from me
People like you keep coming by
My picture’s not for free
Strangers always drop their eyes
But I’m still standing here
I’m the one with nothing, but I don’t need your tears
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Mother’s with the baby, sitting by the creek
Can you help us lady, got something we can eat
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
I hear you, mom, I’m coming, Yeah, the wind, I know
Without the rain the dust gets so bad
We really gotta go
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
Carry me away from here, Carry me away
