Laura Veirs - Black-Eyed Susan

Текст песни

Twenty days walking so lonely and talking to myself and the rocks and sand
Got me to thinking 'bout going and drinking in a tavern with a clean-shaven man
Just when I thought all souls had been bought by the devil here long ago
There did i see when I knelt to my knee a little Texas flower grow
Black-eyed Susan by the roadside blooming all yellow like sunshine,
red like wine
Flower like you in a desert this cruel
My my, you’re a rare rare find
Well my newfound friend gave my heart a mend
I sang her songs of my wayward ways
As day turned to night in the crystal moonlight
I confirmed her unwavering gaze
As the days unraveled I stayed in the gravel
And Susan kept her eye on me
With my eye on her I felt my heart all astir
With the joy of camaraderie
