I'm A Keeper
Blue eyed SusansStanding in a domino lineFalling in and out of love all the timeThey'll break your heart just to see a boy cryBut not meI am a brown eyed lonerI march to my own drummerI'm a piccolo owner and the labor of my mother's loveHoney you'd be a load off her mind
But with or without youMy only plan is to be freeWith or without youI'm still me
I'll join a band and sing like a canaryGet out of here and change my name to CherryAnd every night I'll thank Holy Mother MaryI am a keeperOh I am a keeper babyI am a keeper
Long stem rosesStanding in a vase by my bedStanding tall like the dreams in my headI'm not gonna live in this house 'til I'm deadI like you a lot'Cause you're different a littleYou got answers to my riddlesYour daddy is a pistolAnd you are a son of a gunI could be the daughter that he never wanted
But with or without you
I'll buy a farm at the edge of the prairieLive off the land and change my name to CherryAnd every night I'll thank Holy Mother MaryI am a keeperOh I am a keeper babyI am a keeper
With or without youMy only plan is to be freeWith or without youI'm still me
I'll buy a sword and join the militaryCut my hair and change my name to CherryAnd every night I'll thank Holy Mother MaryI am a keeperOh I am a keeper babyI am a keeperI am a keeper baby
