lyrics

Be still my heart, there's no use in crying
I've made my bed and I've lay awake for so long
restless I turn, things pull and burn and tug at familiar times
and thoughts take their place in another sad little song

Out in the City, the boys are so pretty
any soul can spin a cold, cold lie
if she were a gambler, she'd sure make a rich man cry
makin' stale bread and butter
that ain't fit for fodder
off a merchant of white collar crime
she's a suitman's full packet
on a life lackey's dime

If I had a child, what would I tell her?
I'd like to think I'll know what to say as time goes by
sugar is sweet but it's bad for your teeth
though it sure catches many a fly
some of them good but no trade for your white winning smile

Out in the City, the boys are so pretty
any soul can spin a cold, cold lie
if she were a gambler, she'd sure make a rich man cry
and dogs make their piece off the lone shy and beat
with an ear full of tattle and grime
movin' days like their hours
still they're not out of time

But ultimately it is the timeless song writing of old world and 20th century troubadours and Tennessee reared yodellers, that inspires much of her work. ... more
