Indigo Girls - The Ballad of Squeaky Fromme Lyrics

I'm scared as hell 'cause Squeaky's out of jail
But I can feel her close behind me like the devil on my heels
Well they say she's headin' to California, or maybe for D.C.
Well I'm sittin' here in Georgia, arguin' with my family

Contras called a truce but they broke it in an hour
And now someone's sittin' in a Tower of Babel and it's givin' them that power
Well let's stop the war in Bethlehem oh to let sweet Jesus pass
But tell me how much does it really mean if they screw hime over behind his back

I can feel her closing in and I hope she understands
That society and me that we aren't necessarily hand in hand
She's broken all her bonds, got no superficial cause
She gave up all the chances to live inside the law

And I said, Squeaky, peace on earth, can you tell me what it's worth?
From the inside out I let you in, cause you might understand
And Squeaky, I said, peace on earth, can you tell me what it's worth?
From the inside out I let you in, cause you might understand
And Squeaky, in your mixed up mind you may not be so blind
Oh Squeaky, I said, peace on earth, can you tell us what it's worth?
From the inside out I'll let you in oh cause you might understand

And God is in my heart but the devil's in our bones

Oh Squeaky oh you are not alone
Oh you are not alone

I said peace on earth
Give me peace on earth 
Give me peace on earth
Give me peace on earth
Peace on earth
Give me peace on earth 
Give me peace on earth
Give me peace on earth

I said, Squeaky, give me peace on earth, can you tell us what it's worth?
Now from the inside out I could, I could let you in, cause I know that you might understand
You see that God is in my heart oh but the devil's in our, the devil's in our bones
Oh you are not alone
