Joanna - This Crazy Life Lyrics

Little sister, a few months old
Died in the crib, it smelled so bad
Survived on the neighbors milk you stole
Never knew mom and you never saw dad

Lost in foster home confusion
In your eyes, love's just an illusion
Defensive all your life
Wish I could make it all a lie

And say, it's just okay
And make it go away

You, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your mother

You, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain it

It's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life

Just 18, had your first child
You were beaten, abused and torn
Five years on when the paper's filed
Still you never knew when you were born

So mama tell me a bedtime story
Say a little prayer, so not to worry
Make a wish up in the air
Just say a word and I'll be there

To make it all okay
To make it go away

You, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your mother

You, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain it

It's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life

You, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your mother

You, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain it

You, you can lay down
Mama, let me be your cover
Let me be your mother

You, you can break down
'Cause I know that you can take it
Wish I could explain it

It's just this crazy life
It's just this crazy life
So sleep tight
