|
I got youYou've got whatever's left in me to get |
|
Our conversations are like minefields |
|
No one's found a safe way through one yet |
|
I spent a lot of money |
|
I buy you white gold |
|
We raise up a little roof |
|
Against the cold |
|
On Southwood |
|
Plantation |
|
RoadWhere at night the stars blow like milk across the sky |
|
Where the high wires drop |
|
Where the fat crows fly |
|
All night long |
|
You giggle and scream |
|
Your brown eyes |
|
Deeper than a dream |
|
I am not gonna lose you |
|
We are gonna stay married |
|
In this house like a |
|
Louisiana graveyard |
|
Where nothing stays buried |
|
On Southwood |
|
Plantation |
|
RoadWhere the dead will walk again |
|
Put on their |
|
Sunday best |
|
And mingle with unsuspecting |
|
Christian men |
