Drive-By Truckers - Rosemary with a Bible and a Gun şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Drive-By Truckers

albüm: The Unraveling


As strong as the day was long
Rosemary would sing along
Wheels rolling steady down the way
The ashtray, it would fill up twice
The windows down felt nice
As miles stretched the twilight of the day
Driving up by 55, Mississippi zooming by
Salvation in the cool November air
I'm searching for the mixture that could paint a pretty picture
Of the wind blowing through Rosemary's hair
♪
Her daddy always said she was the one
Who made the light stars could wish upon
Rosemary with a Bible and a gun
♪
I was more than smitten by the words as they were written
And the opportunities awaiting there
Our time was etched and promised
'Til the truth came down upon us
Descending all our hopes into despair
We took our leave and headed north
Tank a 20 dollars worth
The highway called her name like siren's call
25 and on the run, William Eggleston
Parking lots with neon in the fall
♪
Her daddy's eyes drew fire into the sun
Asked me why I thought I was the one
His eyes could be deemed worthy to whoever cast upon
Rosemary with a Bible and a gun
One kiss could turn the dark to light, the dawn
This rollercoaster highway can't compare to the fun
Of Memphis saturated in decay and on the run
Rosemary with a Bible and a gun
♪
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
