Lyrics
Blood Tree

Deep on the banks of the blood tree
You strangle me so delicately, so delicately you strangle
Me
Beneath the boughs in the dim light
The moon comes out and we start to fight
The moon shines so bright
Will we ever get through this life?
I don't care about you and whatever it is that you do,
Doing drugs, popping pills, shouting out the window at
Girls, You showed me pictures of your ex girlfriend
On the beach without her shirt on and it made me sick
And I didn't tell you it did.
Hey baby with the wounded knee
You got caught up in crippled creek
Hangin' out with the Jesus freaks
Let me show you what it means to me
Jump (back/out) put it down
Shake your leg and turn around
Shake to that sound...
I don't care about you and whatever you want me to do
Wipe your nose, take out the trash,
Give and give, and never ask
Go away, leave me alone
Go chew on yr dog's bone
The only boy I ever loved turned into a golden dove
And moved to California.
