I HOPE THE KIDS MAKE IT OUT words/music: bill mallonee
(admin. BMI 2015)

It all dried up here years ago
they moved it all over-seas; let us go
no back up plan and baby, it's all gone south
i just hope the kids make it out

had some small town dreams with some small town hopes
always starting over again at the end of the same rope
sweating bullets in your sleep till you bolt upright with a shout
i just hope the kids make it out

Now, all the gold in the world won't buy off your regrets
and all the whiskey at the bar? well, there's n'er enough to make you forget
You'll cast your pearls before swine, brother there's no doubt
i just hope the kids make it out
i just hope the kids make it out
