lyrics

Molly's been lying
With streaks down her face,
Leaving tears on her pillow
In her hospital bed.

And Jojo, meanwhile,
He just needed some space,
The shade of the willow tree
Over his head.

Chorus:
And she tried to tell him she ain't done him wrong.
But her words weren't enough for him, by God.

Molly's still fighting;
She's screaming in pain,
And Jojo ain't with her
To hold her hand.

He ain't stricken by lightning,
So there's nothing to gain,
By leaving the river,
So he won't even stand.

Chorus

A new baby boy came later that day.
Where was the father? Well, I couldn't say,
But Jojo knew that there was no way.

The boy never knew his father his whole life,
And his absence cut like a knife.
And Jojo lay awake every night.
