"Forever Home" lyrics

"Forever Home"

Born to the swamps and the cypress trees
Florida baby just like me
Few screws runnin' loose in the family

Baby girl McConnell
Was all they wrote on the certificate of birth
Half a name
No shoes, no shirt
The void is not your only friend
Baby girl will bring you in
Give you a name

A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home

Drinkin' black coffee by age three
'Cause there wasn't much to eat
She claims she's only short because of caffeine

Baby girl McConnell
Was all they wrote on the certificate of birth
Half a name
No shoes, no shirt
The void has always listened
But baby girl will bring you in
Give you a name

A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
A name of your own, a forever home
