paroles de chanson The Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird (Interview Song) - Maiah Wynne

When I was a babe I fell down in the holler
When I was a girl I fell into your arms
We fell on hard times and we lost our bright color
You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms

I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like honey
You stole and you gambled and I said you should
We sang for our suppers and we drank up our money
Then one day you left, saying I was no good

Well, all right, I'm bad, but then, you're no prize either
All right, I'm bad, but then, that's nothing new
You say you won't love me, well I won't love you neither
Just let me remind you who I am to you

'Cause I am the one who looks out when you're leaping
And I am the one who knows how you were brave
And I am the one who knows what you said sleeping
I'll take that and more when I go to my grave

It's sooner than later that I'm six feet under
It's sooner than later that you'll be alone
So who will you turn to tomorrow, I wonder
For when the bell rings, lover, you're on your own
For when the bell rings, lover, you're on your own

I am the one who you let see you weeping
I know the soul that you struggle to save
Too bad I'm the bet that you lost in the reaping
Now what will you do when I go to my grave?
