(Emmylou Harris)
My baby needs a sheperd
She´s lost out on the hill
Too late I tried to call her
When the night was cold and still
And I tell myself I´ll find her
But I know I never will
My baby needs a sheperd
She´s lost out on the hill
My baby needs an angel
She never learned to fly
She´ll not reach sanctuary
Just by looking to the sky
I guess I could have carried her
But I didn´t even try
My baby needs an angel
She never learned to fly
Oh I ran so far through a broken land
I was following that drummer
Beating in a different band
And somewhere on the highway
I´let go of her hand
Now she´s gone forever
Like her footprints in the sand
Toora loora loora lo
First the seed and then the rose
Toora loora loora li
My kingdom for a lullaby
My baby needs a pilot
She has no magic wand
To help her part the troubled waters
Of the Rubicon
But in my soul I know she´ll
Have to go this one alone
After all that is only way she´s ever known
But there is no lamp in all this dark
That could chase away her shadow
From the corners of my heart
I pray she´s ride a dolphin
But she´s swimming with the shark
Out where none can save her
Not even Noah and his ark
Toora loora loora lo
To the cradle comes the crow
Toora loora loora li
My kingdom for a lullaby
My baby needs a mother
To love her till the end
Up every rugged mountain
And down every road that bends
Sometimes I hear her cryin´
But I guess it´s just the wind
My baby needs a mother
To love her till the end
Emmylou Harris is an American singer-songwriter born in Alabama in 1947. Considered one of the most influential country singers of the 1970s and beyond, she has managed to combine folk, country, and rock elements into a unique sound.
