Shovels & Rope - Pretty Polly şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Shovels & Rope

albüm: By Blood (Deluxe Edition)


Polly was a girl not yet sixteen
I met her by the lake in the fall
Our love unfurled like a warm sick dream
It's a shame I had to go and waste it all
When we were together
Everything was alright
We shared everything you could share
Easy like a feather til that warm wet night
When she hit me with that hundred mile stare
And then I couldn't let her go
And of the child she would bear
My arms were turning into rope
I couldn't let her go
I couldn't let her stay
I buried pretty polly in a poor pathetic grave
And there she lays stranded in the Tivoli parking lot
No gas, no money, no love
Promised to a promise that I wouldn't get caught
But the dark sky handed me a dove
And I couldn't let it go
And all the beauty up above
I could never control
I couldn't let her go
I couldn't let her stay
I ran like hell
I ran away
I ran like hell from the hell I made
From the mouth of the babes
From the mouth of the bay
Poor Pretty Polly
The wolf and the prey
