lyrics

The devil gave her food stamps for her soul
She drank her soup n then she ate the bowl
She has no past, no future too
An eternal present, rare n true
Her eyes reflect the burnin of the coal

Her long black braids lay heavy on her breast
She's followin the sundown goin west
A monument, can't help but love it
No argument, she's high above it
You'll leave your crib n go out on the quest

When you're low n lonesome n you don't know what to do
She will make you feel as good as new

Her silent gestures make you wanna hide
Free spirit in a troubled mind
She'll greet you with a rose of red
N bite you on your shoulder blade
You've searched for gold, diamonds you have found

The birds they sing in unison tonight
Tomorrow morning they'll set out for flight
The whistlin winds in harmony
Will lift their wings over the sea
While she'll put on her coat n fly her kite

When you're low n lonesome n you don't know what to do
She will make you feel as good as new

With laughter in her cheeks she whispers yessss
As she slips on a wedding dress
Her parents n her brothers
Her past time friends n lovers
Carry you n place you in your nest

A Prairie home carved in heavy rock
On the fireplace an untuned mantel clock
Long mornings in your bed of tar
There is no life outside there are
No windows n the doors they're all locked

When you're low n lonesome n you don't know what to do
She will make you feel as good as new

She never looks you in the eye straight
As she lays down your dinner plate
With smoke in mouth n heavy breath
She sings a song of wrath till death
Do you apart before it gets too late

From better to good from good to bad to worse
The way you look, you need a nurse
As accurate as π
You're getting ready for to die
She'll follow your hearse n cast her blissful curse

When you're low n lonesome n you don't know what to do
She will make you feel as good as new

If you're goin down to Germany
Say hello to the most beautiful damsel I ever did see
A moment of reality
Will last you for eternity
The bitter sweetness of her memory

When you're low n lonesome n you don't know what to do
She will make you feel as good as new
