She's waitin' for me
When i get home from work
Oh, but things ain't just the same
She turns out the light
And cries in the dark
Won't answer when i call her name
On the stairs i smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shootin'
Fireworks below
Hey baby, it's the fourth of july
Hey baby, it's the fourth of july
She gives me her cheek
When i want her lips
But i don't have the strength to go
On the lost side of town
In a dark apartment
We gave up trying so long ago
On the stairs i smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shootin'
Fireworks below
Hey baby, it's the fourth of july
Hey baby, it's the fourth of july
What ever happened i
Apologize
So dry your tears and baby
Walk outside, it's the fourth of july
On the stairs i smoke a
Cigarette alone
Mexican kids are shootin'
Fireworks below
Hey baby, it's the fourth of july
Hey baby, baby take a walk outside
