作曲 : Drive-By Truckers, Hood | |
On the day that she was buried | |
Her daddy stood out by the cemetery fence | |
Prayed to | |
God for forgiveness | |
For surely all of this is punishment for my sins | |
They put her in the family garden | |
Said you could hear his heart breaking miles away | |
All the men pitched in and bought a marble angel | |
To mark the piece of land where little | |
Bonnie lay | |
My grandma said she would keep her in the mornings | |
So her mama could sleep a bit and do the chores and such | |
She'd read her stories about little girls and magic powers | |
That would never let a pretty angel hurt | |
Her mama's always been a beauty | |
She's still beautiful to this very day | |
But they say | |
Bonnie's crystal eyes put the stars to shame | |
Maybe heaven needed | |
Bonnie's face | |
My grandma said she would keep her in the mornings | |
A swollen angel who never would complain | |
She'd read her stories about little girls and princesses | |
Whose daddy's don't feel punished for what heaven takes away | |
Little Bonnie never married | |
Little Bonnie never even made it four | |
But I grew up in her presence | |
Even though she was gone before | |
I'z bornEven though she was gone before | |
I'z born |
