Bob Dylan — Help Me Understand

Take me and lead me and hold to my hand Heavenly father, help me understand Take me and lead me and hold to my hand Heavenly father, help me understand Friends, I'd like to tell a story of a family I once knew We'll call them William and Mary and their little daughter Sue Now Mary was just the average housewife And Bill was just a usual dad And they had their little family arguments But neither onе ever got mad Then onе day something happened It was nothing of course But one word lead to another And the last word lead to divorce Now here's two grown up people Who failed to use common sense They strengthen their own selfish pride At little Sue's expense You know she didn't ask to be brought to this world To drift from pillar to post But a divorce never stops to consider The ones that its hurting the most There'd be a lot more honest lovin' In this cruel world today If just a few hundred parents Could hear little Sue say Take me and lead me and hold to my hand Heavenly father, help me understand Take me and lead me and hold to my hand Heavenly father, help me understand Take me and lead me and hold to my hand Heavenly father, help me understand
