For The Beauty Of Wynona Lyrics - Daniel Lanois

The ingots are burning red 

I'm working time and a half 

Tomorrow I'll stay in bed 

What a life I lead, what a life 

I burn my fingers, why don't you 

Laugh with the rest who know it well 

I tripped and then I fell for 

The beauty of Wynonna 

Oh at night I toss and I turn 

I try and dial your number 

Oh it's changed and God only knows 

Where you been since last December 

Where you been with that twisted smile 

Throwing your mother in the pond 

Break him easy when he go down for 

The beauty of Wynona 

Girls they skip double dutch 

I saw you go mama gone 

Our prayers don't mean nothin' much 

To the heart that cannot be won 

And in your wishing well 

Right here in my own bed 

Break him easy when he go down for 

The beauty of Wynonna
