Break It To Them Gently

Break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad
When you see my baby sister be as kind as you can
And break it to my Grandma, who said "That boy's wild and bad"
Break it to them gently when you tell them that I won't be coming home again

Cause I'm running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive
Fightin for my life and I don't know if I'll make it alone
Running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive
God I wanna go home
Lord I wish I was home

When you see my lady with the twinkle in her eyes
Tell it to her softly and hold her if she cries
Tell her that I love her and I will til the day I die
Break it to her gently when you tell her that I won't be coming home again

I got in too deep with strangers
Thinking they could help me find my way
But nobody warned me of the dangers
And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay

So break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad
Thank them for the good years and all the lovin that I had
And break it to my Grandma, who said "the boy is wild and bad"
Break it to them gently when you tell 'em that I won't be comin home again

I got in too deep with strangers
Thinking they could help me find my way
But nobody warned me of the dangers
And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay)

You gotta break it to them gently
Gotta really try to roll 'em
Gotta break it to them gently
Gotta really try to soothe them
Gotta really try to roll 'em
You gotta roll it to my Mother
Gotta roll it to my Grandma
Gotta roll the old lady
Roll it to my Grandma, she's damn near eighty
Roll the old lady

Mirror lyrics:

Roll the old lady
Roll it to my Grandma, she's damn near eighty
Gotta roll the old lady
Gotta roll it to my Grandma
You gotta roll it to my Mother
Gotta really try to roll 'em
Gotta really try to soothe them
Gotta break it to them gently
Gotta really try to roll 'em
You gotta break it to them gently

And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay)
But nobody warned me of the dangers
Thinking they could help me find my way
I got in too deep with strangers

Break it to them gently when you tell 'em that I won't be comin home again
And break it to my Grandma, who said "the boy is wild and bad"
Thank them for the good years and all the lovin that I had
So break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad

And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay
But nobody warned me of the dangers
Thinking they could help me find my way
I got in too deep with strangers

Break it to her gently when you tell her that I won't be coming home again
Tell her that I love her and I will til the day I die
Tell it to her softly and hold her if she cries
When you see my lady with the twinkle in her eyes

Lord I wish I was home
God I wanna go home
Running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive
Fightin for my life and I don't know if I'll make it alone
Cause I'm running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive

Break it to them gently when you tell them that I won't be coming home again
And break it to my Grandma, who said "That boy's wild and bad"
When you see my baby sister be as kind as you can
Break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad
