This ain't no place for losers   Or the innocent of mind   It's a full time job   For anyone to stay alive      The streets have shallow boundaries   For the war that's everyone   What a wasteland for   Broken dreams and hired guns      Shelter me, baby shelter me   When I'm sitting like I'm losing ground   Shelter me      I've gone to sleep with one eye open   The other rolls my tears   In the darkness I can hide my heart   But none of my fears      In the morning like a soldier   I look closed up battleground   Another day, another [Incomprehensible] me   And the world goes round      Shelter me   Won't you shelter me?   When I'm sitting like I'm losing ground   Shelter me      Won't you shelter me?   Oh, shelter me   When I lose control of my only home   Shelter me      Every time I tumble down   I wanna pack it up and leave this town   But when I finally get the nerve   Get cleared out of the shoes   I'm thanking you, I'm thanking you      Baby shelter me, please shelter me   When I'm sitting like I'm losing ground   Shelter me      Won't you shelter me?   When I lose control of my only home   Shelter me      Won't you shelter me?   Oh, shelter me, baby please   Shelter me      Stay back and shelter me   Come on and shelter me   When I lose control of my only home   Shelter me
