Never had three brothers   But I’ve heard that some other families do   And I’ve never known three lovers   But it’s no excuse   I know it’s no excuse   And when I was a baby boy   I cried the way other babies do   I never knew what time it was   I never knew, and neither do you      I’ve seen all your picture shows   The dirty ones and bits on TV   I took off my Sunday clothes   The dirty ones with patches on the knee   I got everything I want   Chalk it up as another tragedy   You never forgot anyone   Don’t forget to forgive me      I won’t need a cross   So don’t break down   And don’t get lost   Cause you’re not cross now      I never loved a southern city   It’s been a while but I guess I’ve seen em all   And Thanksgiving wasn’t pretty   But momma said to please give you a call   And you was a baby girl   You learned to talk before you learned to crawl   I don’t remember how this ends   Something about the writings on the wall      I won’t need a cross   So don’t break down   And don’t get lost   Cause you’re not cross now   I won’t need a cross   So don’t break down   And don’t get lost   Cause you’re not cross now
