- My Baby Needs A Shepherd -
by Emmylou Harris, from her album 'Red Dirt Girl' (2000)
Written by Emmylou Harris
DMy baby needs a shepherd, she's Glost out on the Dhill
Too late, I tried to call her when the Anight was cold and still
And I Dtell myself I'll find her but I Gknow I never Dwill
My baby needs a shepherd, she's Alost out on the Dhill
DMy baby needs an angel, she Gnever learned to Dfly
She'll not reach sanctuary just by lAooking to the sky
I Dguess I could have carried her but I Gdidn't even Dtry
My baby needs an angel, she Anever learned to Dfly
DOh, I ran so far through a broken land
I was Gfollowing that Ddrummer, beating Ain a different band
DSomewhere on the highway, I Glet go of her Dhand
Now she's gone forever like her Afootprints in the Dsand
Chorus:
Toora Gloora loora Dlo, first the sAeed and then the Drose
Toora Gloora loora Dli,G my kingdom Dfo-Aor a lullDaby
My Dbaby needs a pilot, she Ghas no magic wDand
To help her part the troubled waters Aof the Rubicon
But Din my soul, I know she'll have to Ggo this one alDone
After all that is the only Away she's ever Dknown
DBut there is no lamp in all this dark
That could Gchase away her Dshadow from the Acorners of my heart
I Dpray she rides a dolphin but she's Gswimmin' with the Dshark
Out where none can save her, not even ANoah and his Dark
Chorus:
Toora Gloora loora Dlo, to the cAradle comes the Dcrow
Toora Gloora loora Dli,G my kingdom Dfo-Aor a lullDaby
My Dbaby needs a mother to Glove her till the Dend
Up every rugged mountain and down eAvery road that bends
SomeDtimes, I hear her cryin' but I Gguess it's just the Dwind
My baby needs a mother to Alove her till the Dend
