Shelter Me - Joe Cocker

This ain’t no place for losers

Or the innocent of mind

It’s a full time job

For anyone, to stay alive

The streets have shallow boundaries

For the war that’s everyone

What a wasteland for

Broken dreams and hired guns

Shelter me, baby shelter me

When I’m sitting like I’m losing ground

Shelter me

I’ve gone to sleep

But when I open

The other goes my tears

In the darkness

I can I can hide my heart

But non of my fears

In the morning

Like a soldier

I look closed up battleground

Another day

Another part of me

And the world goes round

Shelter me

Won’t you shelter me

When I’m sitting like I’m losing ground

Shelter me

Won’t you shelter me

Oh, shelter me

When I lose control

Of my own home

Shelter me

Every time time I tumble down

I want to pack it up and leave this town

But when I finally get the nerve

Get cleared out of the shoes

I’m thanking you

I’m thanking you

Baby shelter me

Please shelter me

When I’m sitting down, and losing ground

Shelter me

Won’t you shelter me

When I lose control

Am I alone

Shelter me

Won’t you shelter me

Oh, shelter me

Baby please

Oh, shelter me

Stay back and shelter me

Come on and shelter me

When I lose control

Am I alone

Shelter me
