To you it's another day
|
to me it's a grim reaping
|
just another shooting star
|
strung out on your wire
|
|
prick my finger
|
on his virgin silver
|
he took me raw, Ginger -
|
it carmelized me
|
|
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
|
help me hang these bones
|
gotta hang these bones out to dry
|
he loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
|
gonna hang these bones out to dry
|
dry, dry, dry
|
|
oh, you do it, man
|
|
Got a blackberry stain
|
and they're not even in season
|
if you're not yet a woman
|
you got no business playing at this
|
|
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
|
help me hang these bones
|
gotta hang these bones out to dry
|
he loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
|
gonna hang these bones out to dry
|
dry, dry, dry
|
|
oh, you do it, man
|
|
so you get done
|
then you get some
|
sure enough, it won't hold you for long
|
then you say "right.
|
this is all mine"
|
but hasn't your donor card expired
|
from Blueridge to Cattail
|
on the prairie
|
from fly over country
|
back through Mississippi
|
|
I said go, man you go
|
well you raise me twenty
|
I'm raising you five
|
hundred treaties signed by your father's lies
|
|
just go man, you go
|
cause I'm trailing her tears
|
the ones you won't hold
|
you roll me a carpet
|
roll me a carpet, boy
|
roll me a carpet from here to Oklahoma
|
|
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
|
help me hang this bone
|
gotta hang these bones out to dry
|
he loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
|
gonna hang these bones out to dry
|
to dry, dry, dry
|
|
I'll do again
|
dry, dry, dry<p align="center"><font size="3"><b><a href="index.htm"><u>
