Lyric discussion by prettybaby 

Cover art for Letter to a John lyrics by Ani DiFranco

i was eleven years old he was as old as my dad and he took something from me i didn't even know that i had so don't tell me about decency don't tell me about pride just give me something for my trouble 'cause this time, it's not a free ride

-- everytime i hear this part of the song i feel all sad &sick. she has such a powerful voice. i think it's obvious as to what that particular lyric is saying..but still. i love her lyrics
