What Do You Want The Boy To Do?
From Home Plate, Bonnie Raitt

So you think the man is crazy?
He eats up your lies
Like they’re good for him.
Apple pie - he don’t even cry.
He’s not a fool -
He’s just tryin’ to do what his heart says to,
To love you.

As you take to the wind,
(to the wind again my friend)
As he breaks down within,
(within, within within)
he waits for you patiently
Hoping that one day you’ll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternally.

(What do you want the boy to do?
Don’t you see you’re breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?)
All he really wants is you.

He knows what you are
Still he’ll be your king.
(Say the word today)
You know better.
Build your world around him

Now and then you promise
All the way-out things
that you’re going to give to him
(You will see
you will be
So damn glad that you finally found him.)

(Free the boy) * best guess
As he watches you come and go
(for your soul) * best guess
As he watches your promises erode
(erode, erode, erode)
he waits for you patiently
Hoping that one day you’ll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternally.

(What do you want the boy to do?
Don’t you see you’re breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?
Don’t you see that you’re breaking the child in two.

What do you want the boy to do?
Don’t you see that you’re breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?
Don’t you see that you’re breaking the child in two.)
