Jackie Brown

Is this your life, Jackie Brown? Poorly educated and forced to live on the poor side of town. Is this your daughter, Jackie Brown? This pretty little girl In the worn out clothes That have been hand-me down. Is this your wife, Jackie Brown? With sad blue eyes, walking on eggshells so you don't see her frown. Is this your family, Jackie Brown? Dream of vacationing on a mountain stream And giving the world more than it gave you. What ugly truths freedom brings And it hasn't been very kind to you. Is this your life, Jackie Brown? Is this your meal, Jackie Brown? Barely enough, I've seen people throw away more than this out. Is this your home, Jackie Brown? This three room shack With no running water And the bathroom out back. Is this your grave, Jackie Brown? This little piece of limestone that says another desperate man took himself out. Is this your dream, Jackie Brown?
