(2x) This ain’t no place for losers or the innocent of mind it’s a full time job for anyone to stay alive. The streets have satellite boundaries for the war that’s never won what a wasteland for broken dreams and hired guns. Shelter me baby shelter me when I’m sinking down and losing ground shelter me ! I’ve got to sleep with one eye open the other holds my tears in the darkness I can hide my heart but none of my fears. In the morning like a soldier I’ll approach the battleground another day another dollar bill and the world goes round. Shelter me baby shelter me when I’m sinking down and losing ground shelter me ! Won’t you shelter me oh shelter me when I lose control on my way home shelter me. Every time I tumble down I wanna pack it up and leave this town but when I finally get the nerve get the lead out of the shoes I’m thanking you I thank you. Baby shelter me please shelter me when I’m sinking down and losing ground shelter me ! Won’t you shelter me when I lose control on my way home shelter me ! Won’t you tellin’ me oh shelter me baby please shelter me! Stay back and shelter me come on and shelter me when I lose control on my way home shelter me !
