[al:Ladies Of The Canyon] |
| [00:08.93] |
Trinna wears her wampum beads |
| [00:13.72] |
She fills her drawing book with lines |
| [00:17.80] |
Sewing lace on widows weeds |
| [00:22.08] |
And filagree on leaf and vine |
| [00:26.96] |
Vine and leave are filagree |
| [00:31.00] |
And her coats a second hand one |
| [00:35.79] |
Trimmed in antique luxury |
| [00:39.23] |
She is a lady of the canyon |
| [00:44.20] |
|
| [00:54.12] |
Annie sits you down to eat |
| [00:58.21] |
She always makes you welcome in |
| [01:03.19] |
Cats and babies round her feet |
| [01:06.89] |
And all are fat and none are thin |
| [01:11.67] |
None are thin and all are fat |
| [01:15.10] |
She may bake some brownies today |
| [01:20.09] |
Saying, you are welcome back |
| [01:23.57] |
She is another canyon lady |
| [01:28.06] |
|
| [01:38.37] |
Estrella circus girl |
| [01:42.60] |
Comes wrapped in songs and gypsy shalws |
| [01:46.83] |
Songs like tiny hammers hurled |
| [01:50.76] |
At bevelled mirrors in empty halls |
| [01:57.29] |
Empty halles and bevelled mirrors |
| [02:00.62] |
Sailing seas and climbing banyans |
| [02:04.85] |
Come out for a visit here |
| [02:08.30] |
To be a lady of the canyon |
| [02:20.91] |
|
| [02:23.94] |
Trinna takes her pains and her threads |
| [02:28.17] |
And she weaves a pattern all her own |
| [02:32.12] |
Annie bakes her cakes and her breads |
| [02:35.55] |
And she gathers flowers for her home |
| [02:43.87] |
For her home she gathers flowers |
| [02:45.71] |
And Estrella, dear companion |
| [02:49.99] |
Colors up the sunshine hours |
| [02:53.43] |
Pouring music down the canyon |
| [03:08.41] |
Coloring the sunshine hours |
| [03:12.44] |
They are the ladies of the canyon |
