At night in bed   I heard God whisper lullabyes   While Daddy next door   Whistled whiskey tunes   And sometimes when I wanted   They would harmonize   There was nothing those two couldn't do      Embrace me you child   You're a child of mine   And I'm leaving everything I am to you   Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"   And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"      I thought together they must sing the moon away   I thought that they must know each other well   For the magic that they made   When they played   Wasn't lost between their Heaven and their Hell      Embrace me you child   You're a child of mine   And I'm leaving everything I am to you   Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"   And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"      Then one night Daddy died   And went to Heaven   And God came down to earth   And slipped away      I pretended not to know   I'd been abandoned   But no one sang the night into the day   And later night time songs came back again   But the singers don't compare   With those I knew   And I never figured out   Where God and Daddy went   But there was nothing those two couldn't do      Embrace me you child   You're a child of mine   And I'm leaving everything I am to you   Go chase the wild and night time streets sang "Daddy"   And God sang "Pray the devil doesn't get to you"
