"Hiding Place" lyrics

When I was a young boy, pride of my family
My mama used to hang me out to dry
The boy couldn't have it
Sometimes he had to find
A hiding place to hang his head and cry

Talking about a hiding place, a hiding place
Little bit of shelter from the blues
Ain't no disgrace if you got to hide your face
We all need a hiding place to get us through

Here I am as a young man, my feet out on the highway
Summer breeze to tell me what to do
Might meet a young lady stop off for a while
Cold reality from blowing through

I'm talking about a hiding place, a hiding place
Little bit of shelter from the blues
Yeah, ain't no disgrace if you got to hide your face
We all need a hiding place to get us through

I can't tell the difference between right and wrong
I can't always tell which one's best for me
I know this dirty city like the back of my dirty hand
Still can't seem to find no sanity

Now I'm looking out a window and you're looking in
We both are thinking and we like just what we see
Say you can't be certain, what I see in you
Baby, but you know damn well what you see in me

Talking about a hiding place, a hiding place
Little bit of shelter from the blues
Yeah, it ain't no disgrace if you got to hide your face
We all need a hiding place to get us through

Yeah, ain't no disgrace if you got to hide your face
We all need a hiding place to get us through
