In a brown bag Lives my day's strength My best friend My sinning saint In a brown bag On a blue street She turns the lights out And curls up next to me Another long day A lost cause Like a sweet song Stuck on pause When I get lonely When the pain roars She opens up arms I come in for more I took the low road Made a U-turn The hardest lesson I've tried to learn And this brown bag Clenched in my right hand Helps me forget What I can't understand Another long day A lost cause Like a sweet song Stuck on pause When I get lonely When the rain pours She defends me That's what she's there for
