Raiders Took My Baby

[Verse 1] Well the siren sang at sunrise Couple molerats on the hill I was hanging up my laundry Thought the world was standing still Then I heard ’em on the hillside Leather Metal Heavy boots My sweet sugar grabbed his shotgun I just grabbed my worn-out shoes [Chorus] Oh Raiders took my baby Right out of my gate Left me with a busted fence and a half-cooked plate They stole my crops My caps My heart It’s true Oh Raiders took my baby (did they take my baby?) Now I’m feeling so Feeling so Fallout blue [Verse 2] We had Brahmin in the backyard Purified water in a drum Shared a blanket by the turrets Counting bottlecaps for fun Now I’m patching up the sandbags Talking tough to keep ’em out But at night I see that war paint Every time I close my mouth [backing: “close her eyes…”] [Chorus] [Verse 3] Saw her laughing at my garden Boot on top my old chem stash That same raider with the freckles Wiped my tears and split their cash Now she’s leaning on my guard post Chewing gum That sideways grin Maybe losing him was awful But I kind of like this trouble walking in [Chorus]
