Protection Lucinda Williams

[Verse 1]
I've seen some things in life as God is my witness
A crowded bar where nobody could hear
Now I travel through the world with dedication
And what I do, I do it all by my own sweet self

[Chorus]
I need protection from the enemy of love
I need protection from the enemy of righteousness
I need protection from the enemy of good
I need protection from the enemy of kindness
Give me protection from the enemy of love

[Verse 2]
I came into the world all alone
Pushing and struggling to find a home
I'll tell you what child, go ahead and repeat it
It was my own trial made me stand on my two feet

I need protection from the enemy of love
I need protection from the enemy of rock and roll
I need protection from the enemy of good
I need protection from the enemy of kindness
Give me protection from the enemy of soul

[Chorus breakdown]
