She was born in the garden of Eden
Or was it the trailer park?
She said, "Baby can I drive your car tonight?"
I hopped in, but we didn't get far
Do do do do do do do do
A butterfly lands on a dead pig's nose
And from her bosom poppies grow
I said, "Baby I'm the king of nothing,
All I have to give you is this song to sing"
She said,
Every moment we fall asleep
Every moment is an opportunity to awaken
Will you my love, keep my eyes open?
We wandered down to the old French Quarter
Landed in a dive down on Chef Montour
Sax notes float on the Delta breeze
She said, "We'll just watch the days go by"
Do do do do do do do do
We drove west till the land turned wet
The sun set heavy as I took her hand
She drew a circle in the sand
Said, "Daddy I'm the earth beneath your feet"
1998 - Caeser Pink
