Doorstep LyricsPolicemen shot my baby
As he crossed over my doorstep
Policemen shot my baby
Crossing right over my doorstep
His arms were so close
You could see the blood
Pulsing through both his wrists
Don't tell me the cops are right
In a wrong like this
Cause policemen shot my baby
As he crossed over my doorstep
I was taught we must be grateful
For the time that we are here
In the world
To accept death as beyond our heads
And be bitter no more

But if you found your first joy in life
In the arms of a man
Don't tell me you wouldn't
Curse the god that made your hands
When policemen shot your baby
Crossing right over your doorstep

Policemen shot my baby
As he crossed over my doorstep
Policemen shot my baby
Crossing right over my doorstep
His arms were so close
You could see the blood
Pulsing through both his wrists
Don't tell me the cops are right
In a wrong like this
Cause policemen shot my baby
As he crossed over my doorstep

In my life I never met a guy
Who was a better man
(How sad that she doesn't understand how)
Oh so gentle with his woman
And with two feet on the ground
(Just as solid as he sounds)
And I felt my first joy in life
With my head on his chest
Then his trouble came from
Looking out for all the rest
Policemen shot my baby
Crossing right over my doorstep

Sha-na-na, Sha-na-na, Sha-na-na
Oo-wo-oo-wo-oo-woo x4

[Bridge]
Well, I've tried so hard
To be a peaceful, loving woman
Oh, I believed that love and understanding
Were the way
Oh, but how many gone
Before you listen to the cries
With my dead heart
How do I find my way
Through the truth and all the lies

Policemen shot my baby
As he crossed over my doorstep
Sha-na-na, Sha-na-na, Sha-na-na
Oo-wo-oo-wo-oo-woo
