Sweet Children

[Verse 1]
Sweet young girl so soft and blonde
She does exactly as she's been warned
Intoxication's in her veins
Sweet young boy plays with her brain
Believing all his fake-filled lies
Putting his hands onto her thighs
Impurity has now been gripped
He takes away her innocence

[Chorus]
The sweet children
Sweet children
Sweet children
We'll never win

[Verse 2]
Ooh, and Johnny Ray is running again
As he hits the floor again
Running from the light of day
Or maybe lie and celebrate
A sudden sign comes from his hands
Says, "Follow me if you understand"
He's got the trigger of his gun
The final sin, and now he runs
[Chorus]
Sweet children
Sweet children
Sweet children
We'll never win

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Ooh, sweet children
Sweet children
Sweet children
We'll never win
