Lyrics
Dixie Babylon
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.
We went down
To the old part of town
By the stinking canal
And the cotton mill
Under a ghetto palm,
With her bicycle shorts on
With a gesture, she said to me:
"i really must confess
I'd like to get undressed
With you."
And though the thought
Had never really crossed my mind,
Oh, that was a line,
So i went along.
We ran out
Under the turning leaves
The fetid earth,
It was damp and cool
Well autumn`s feeble light
On her salty neck
All innocence, it was lost
I really must confess
I am feeling quite distressed
My stars are always crossed
And i have always taken
More than i have given back,
And as a matter of fact,
I've given nothing up.
