Sweet And Low
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Anywhere you go, anyone you meet
Remember that your eyes, can be your enemies
I said, hell is so Close, and heaven's out of reach
But I ain't givin' up quite yet
I've got too much to lose
[chorus]
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low, and I'll carry you home
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down and I'll carry you home
The rain is gonna fall
The sun is gonna shine
The wind is gonna blow
The water's gonna rise
she said, when that day comes,
look into my eyes, no one's givin' up quite yet, we've go too much to lose
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low, and I'll carry you home
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down and I'll carry you
All the way,
and you say your fine
But your still young
And out of line
When all I need's to turn around
To make it last to make it count
I ain't gonna make the same mistakes that put my mama in her grave
I don't wanna be alone
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down, sweet and low, and I'll carry you home
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down and I'll carry you home
