Caroline Thibodeaux
I'm wearin' white hose
My knees ain't on display
I wears a white dress
They like they maids that way
Don't want 'em dressed for play
Once you was quick
I put all that away
And once you was bright
That's all I got to say
Now it seem you come to some confusion
You wait forever
You losin' courage
'Fore that damn bus come (you losin' light)
My kids should be in bed (lost your old shine)
Lost Caroline
I'm waiting here instead (moon change, moon change)
(Glowing bright, light up the night)
Moon gone change (make your dress)
And change again (of spotless white)
'Fore that damn bus (turn to purple)
Take me home (turn to gleam)
Everyone changing their tune (cool and dry, free and high)
I got to get home!
Like the frogs (miles free)
And the world (from basement steam)
And the moon
It been a rough day
And the sky (I put)
Go from cloudy to clear (all that away)
Times change, Caroline (nothing ever changes)
Even here! (Underground in Louisiana)
