Emmylou Harris - Family Tree Lyrics

Woman, you don't know me, but you can bet that I know you
Everybody in this whole darn town knows you too
I brought along our little babies, �cause I wanted them to see
The woman that�s burnin� down our family tree

No I didn�t come to fight
If he was a better man I might
But I wouldn�t dirty my hands on trash like you, no
Bring out the babies� daddy, that�s who they�ve come to see
Not the woman that�s burnin� down our family tree

Their daddy once was a good man, until he ran into trash like you
Take a look at the baby�s face and tell me who loves who
I brought along his old dog Charlie and the bills that�s overdue
The job you�re workin�...Lord, we need money, too

No I didn�t come to fight
If he was a better man I might
But I wouldn�t dirty my hands on trash like you, no
Bring out the babies� daddy, that�s who they�ve come to see
Not the woman that�s burnin� down our family tree
No not the woman that�s burnin� down our family tree
