Your love it drags me down Into the underground My country bleeding me I will not stay in your arms Not yet, yet, yet No, not yet, yet, yet No, not yet, yet No, not yet, yet (daoe) Not yet, yet, yet No, not yet, yet, yet No, not yet, yet No, not yet, yet, yet At the Salvation Army Making us all stand in a line While mommy and daddy make up And try to make up their mind Oh the shame I felt When those histories mentioned my name!
