Sarah Jarosz - Eve Lyrics

Lyrics Eve - Sarah Jarosz



A long, long time ago in a little Texas town
Eve made her way to the field below
To have a look around, girls, to have a look around
Down, down Evedid go, further in the fields
When she heard a voice singing sweet and low
Dig in with your heels, girl, dig in with your heels
Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel comin' down
All around her brain was the sweet refrain
Keep following the sound, girl, keep following the sound
They'll try to take you for a ride
They'll muddy all the good you've got inside
They'll twist your heart until it's black and blue
But don't let 'em keep you down, girl
Don't let 'em keep you down
Miles, miles Eve did go, when at last she came upon
The source of the sound in the watery ground
And the night was coming on, girls, the night was coming on
Through the wilderness and the cypress trees
And the night birds all around
She made her way to the river's edge
And her mother there she found, girls, her mother there she found
Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel comin' down
When her mother said, come and rest your head
I'll tell you what I've found, girl, I'll tell you what I've found
They'll try to take you for a ride
They'll muddy all the good you've got inside
They'll twist your heart until it's black and blue
But don't let 'em keep you down, girl
Don't let 'em keep you down
