Unwed Fathers
Tammy Wynette
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
In an Appalachian Greyhound station She sits there waiting in a family way Goodbye, brother, tell Mom I love her Tell all the others I'll write someday From an teenage lover to an unwed mother Kept undercover like some bad dream While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered They run like water through a mountain stream In a cold and gray town A nurse says "Lay down" 'This ain't no playground, and this ain't home" Someone's children out having children In a gray stone building, all alone On somewhere else bound Smokey Mountain Greyhound She bows her head down Humming lullabies Your daddy never meant to hurt you ever He just don't live here, but you've got his eyes From an teenage lover to an unwed mother Kept undercover like some bad dream While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered They run like water through a mountain stream Well, they run like water through a mountain stream
