Sweet Melissa, I often pray for you
I hope your suffering was brief
I hope the angels that watch over all little children
Came for you and took you someplace beautiful and sweet
Aahh..
Suffer The Little Children
Dear Melissa, I often think of you
Everytime I hold my baby in my arms
I say a prayer for your mama and daddy too
I know they miss you, miss you since you`re gone
Suffer The Little Children
At the hands of evil men
No baby dolls, no teddy bears
No lullabies for them
Every mother`s nightmare
Will it ever end
Suffer The Little Children
At the hands of evil men
You who done the deed better do some prayin` too
Better hope that God`s forgivin` like they say
Cause somewhere, somebody keeps a list
Of the evils that men do
An` your name`s right up there
I heard `em say
Aahh..
Suffer The Little Children
At the hands of evil men
No baby dolls, no teddy bears
No lullabies for them
Every mother`s nightmare
Will it ever end
Suffer The Little Children
At the hands of evil men
