John Craigie
Innocent in My Arms
[Verse 1]
I hear them talking, I know you hear them too
Just remember everytime they point a finger at you
They got three fingers pointing right back at themselves
Mama said failure ain’t falling down
Failure, is staying down in the ground
Mama’s gone now, but you still get up every time

[Chorus]
Hang on, hang on
Every rising sun is one more till I come back to
Ya babe and teach you how to stay warm
Hang on, hang on
Let this whole town judge you for what they think is wrong
Because all that I know is you are innocent in my arms

[Verse 2]
I ain’t no JC, you ain’t no Magdalene
But this cold world it gets colder it seems
Every time they let them church bells ring
But I’ve seen you dance in the pouring rain
That duct tape on your fiddle, babe it ain’t no shame
Things are only as broke as we let them be

[Chorus]
Hang on, hang on
Every rising sun is one more till I come back to
Ya babe and teach you how to stay warm
Hang on, hang on
Let this whole town judge you for what they think is wrong
Because all that I know is you are innocent in my arms
Ooo-woohoo
Ooo-woohoo

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Chorus]
Hang on, hang on
Every rising sun is one more till I come back to
Ya babe and teach you how to stay warm
Hang on, hang on
Let this whole town judge you for what they think is wrong
Because all that I know is you are innocent in my arms

[Outro]
All that I know
All that I know
All that I knoooow
You are innocent in my arms
