She reads the leaves and she leads the life |
|
That she learned so well from the old wives |
|
It's so strange to arrange it, you know I wouldn't change it |
|
But hear me if you're near me, can I just rearrange it? |
|
The watchman covers me |
|
With his remedy |
|
I can't see and it's hard to feel |
|
I think his magic might be real |
|
I can't get to you from your garden gate |
|
You know it's always locked by the magistrate |
|
Now he don't care why you cry, he thinks it's just a lie |
|
To get out, I don't doubt that you'd make a try |
|
If the good times get you through |
|
I know the dogs won't bother you |
|
We'll be gone in moonshine time |
|
I've got a place they'll never find |
|
You know I do believe in your hexagram |
|
But can you tell me how they all knew the plan? |
|
Did you trip or slip on their gifts, you know we're just a con? |
|
You knew it, why'd you do it, I've been hiding in the dark |
|
Now I must be on my way |
|
I guess you really have to stay |
|
Inside the mission wall |
|
Down in Modock, Arkansas |
