作词 : Joyful Wisdom, McDonald | |
McDonald | |
She hides in an attic concealed on a shelf | |
Behind volumes of literature based on herself | |
And runs across the pages like some tiny elf | |
Knowing that it's hard to find | |
Stuff way back in her mind | |
Winds up spending all of her time | |
Trying to memorize every line | |
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine. | |
Sweet lady of death wants me to die | |
So she can come sit by my bedside and sigh | |
And wipe away the tears from all my friends eyes | |
Then softly she will explain | |
Just exactly who was to blame | |
For causing me to go insane | |
And finally blow out my brain | |
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine. | |
Well you know that it's a shame and a pity | |
You were raised up in the city | |
And you never learned nothing 'bout country ways | |
Ah 'bout country ways. | |
The joy of life she dresses in black | |
With celestial secrets engraved in her back | |
And her face keeps flashing that she's got the knack | |
But you know when you look into her eyes | |
All she's learned she's had to memorize | |
And the only way you'll ever get her high | |
Is to let her do her thing and then watch you die | |
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine. | |
Now she's the one who gives us all those magical things | |
And reads us stories out of the I Ching | |
Then she passes out a whole new basket of rings | |
That when you put on your hand | |
Makes you one of the Angel Band | |
And gives you the power to be a man | |
But what it does for her you never quite understand | |
Sweet Lorraine, ah sweet Lorraine. | |
Well you know that it's a shame and a pity | |
You were raised up in the city | |
And you never learned nothing 'bout country ways | |
Oh 'bout country ways, oh 'bout country ways | |
Yeah about country ways, oh country ways ... |
