Shelter Me - Joe Cocker
This ain't no place for losers
Or the innocent of mind
It's a full time job
For anyone to stay alive
The streets have
Shallow boundaries
For the war that's everyone
What a wasteland for
Broken dreams and hired guns
Shelter me baby shelter me
When I'm sitting
Like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
I've gone to sleep
With one eye open
The other rolls my tears
In the darkness
I can hide my heart
But none of my fears
In the morning
Like a soldier
I look closed up battleground
Another day another dollar bill
And the world goes round
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me
When I'm sitting
Like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me
Oh shelter me
When I lose control
Of my only home
Shelter me
Every time I tumble down
I wanna pack it up
And leave this town
But when I finally
Get the nerve
Get cleared out
Of the shoes
I'm thanking you
I'm thanking you
Baby shelter me
Please shelter me
When I'm sitting
Like I'm losing ground
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me
When I lose control
Of my only home
Shelter me
Won't you shelter me
Oh shelter me
Baby please
Shelter me
Stay back and shelter me
Come on and shelter me
When I lose control
Of my only home
Shelter me
