Degarmo & Key Addey Lyrics

Addey's a cat, she's a fool, she's a star, she's a
queen
She lives in a trap down on third, never heard, never
seen
She's desperate for a way to get out
But she don't know what out means
Ah, Addey, don't you be so afraid,
It's not as bad as it seems

She walks cross the floor, toward the door,
To stairs, to the street
She calls up a cab for downtown
There's a man she must meet
Ah, the thought that she has to go through
Makes her cry to be free
Oh Addey, wipe those tears form your eyes
You wouldn't want him to see

She puts on your face with a smile
As she walks through the door
She thinks of her folks, and her home
And what she came there for
Ah, she tells the man that after this time She won't be back for more
But he says ; Huh, Addey don't you be a fool
You've said the same thing, time and time before

She runs down the street,
In the heat, down past Nowhere café
She drops to her knees neath a tree
But she don't know how to pray

Oh Addey, there's not life in that rig
Why don't you pack it away
Trust in God for a new kind of life
Honey, He won't lead you astray

Addey's a cat, she's a fool, she's a star, she's a
queen
She lives in a trap down on third, never heard, never
seen
She's desperate for a way to get out
But she don't know what out means
Ah, Addey, don't you be so afraid,
It's not as bad as it seems
