Tombigbee
To you it's another day
To me it's a grim reaping
Just another shooting star
Strung out on your wire
Prick my finger
On his virgin silver
He took me raw, Ginger -
It carmelized me
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
Help me hang these bones
Gotta hang these bones out to dry
He loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
Gonna hang these bones out to dry
Dry, dry, dry
Oh, you do it, man
Got a blackberry stain
And they're not even in season
If you're not yet a woman
You got no business playing at this
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
Help me hang these bones
Gotta hang these bones out to dry
He loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
Gonna hang these bones out to dry
Dry, dry, dry
Oh, you do it, man
So you get done
Then you get some
Sure enough, it won't hold you for long
Then you say "right.
This is all mine"
But hasn't your donor card expired
From Blueridge to Cattail
On the prairie
From fly over country
Back through Mississippi
I said go, man you go
Well you raise me twenty
I'm raising you five
Hundred treaties signed by your father's lies
Just go man, you go
Cause I'm trailing her tears
The ones you won't hold
You roll me a carpet
Roll me a carpet, boy
Roll me a carpet from here to Oklahoma
Tombigbee, Tombigbee
Help me hang this bone
Gotta hang these bones out to dry
He loved me, he loved me, ravishingly, low
Gonna hang these bones out to dry
To dry, dry, dry
I'll do again
Dry, dry, dry
