Takin' It to the Streets

Hush little baby

Don't you cry

You've seen it before

Why even bother to try

At this young age

Her mind's in House's range

Don't expect miracles

'Cause people don't change

Lie to keep them away

There's so much they don't need to know

She makes her way around in this world

And she has miles to go

Thank you for your concern, she says

Thank you for being kind

But I can't run carrying the weight of the past

My own way I can find

House will sit at home tonight

Amused by the War Between the States

Saddened by a kid doing life solo

He knows what loneliness awaits

"Good job, son" is all he needed

It was what he wanted to hear

If he had, would things be different?

For House, that will never be clear
