lyrics

I gave my love a cherry without any stone
I gave my love a chicken without any bone
I gave my love a baby with no crying
I gave my love a story that knows no end

How comes there a cherry without any stone?
How comes there a chicken without any bone?
How comes a baby with no crying?
How come there a story that knows no end?

Its hard to talk to strangers it’s hard to trust men
Suspicious of anyone Who wants o be your friend

Mother lost it after the divorce
Your brother the closet when you were alone in the house

Husband who controlled you, told you what to where
Where your could eat, how to wear your hair

Your need for love binding you
Your need for love blinding you
Your need for love winding you
Down down down

To blackouts from drinking, stories you wont tell
Tugging on the arm, begging and pleading

But,
It aint nothing
It aint nothing
It aint nothing
compared to your joy

Empty mailbox on holidays and birthdays
Say it doesn’t bother you, you moved away

Grandmother died when you were only 10
No one was around you took your first boyfriend

Years on acid, years on booze
In a could of smoke with nothing left to lose

Father who forgot you, friends who were toxic
The man who took you when you were unconscious

You got mornings you wake up, eyes already crying
Nights you fall asleep swearing you were dieing

Sink full of dishes trash hanging out
Head over the toiled spilling your guts out

Make it go away I would make it go away
If your pain was a dragon with a sword I would slay
Your pain from the past will linger and betray
I just hope it gets a little bit better every day

And,
it aint nothing
It aint nothing
It aint nothing
compared to your joy

A cherry when its blooming is has no stone
A chicken when its pippin it has no bone
A baby when its sleeping know no crying
The story that I love you knows no end

Still,
It aint nothing
It aint nothing
It aint nothing
compared to your joy
