bobbie gentry - sweet peony (live) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i want you to meet me at my houseboat
be sure and wear your little black rubber raincoat
write you a letter on thin lined note paper
hide it in the tree where the houseboat float

[verse 2]
pulled a pully bone, make a fat wish
crawdad in the sk!llet, gonna catch a catfish
write you a letter on thin line note paper
hide it on the table in the catfish dish
[chorus]
’cause it’s sweet peony, it’s my dream
it’s a sweet peony, it’s my dream

[verse 3]
houseboat floatin’ down the bayou
tried to catch a fish, and now i think i’ll try you
write you a letter on thin line note paper
in a tree, a dish and in the bayou, too

[verse 4]
and if our eyelids are gettin’ heavy
we’ll dock our houseboat on the muddy levee
read all the letters on the thin lined note paper
wad ’em up and eat ’em on the bayou

[chorus]
’cause it’s sweet peony, it’s my dream
it’s a sweet peony, it’s my dream

[verse 5]
i want you to meet me at my houseboat
be sure and wear your little black rubber raincoat
write you a letter on thin lined note paper
hide it in the tree where the houseboat float
[chorus]
(sweet) peony, it’s my dream
it’s a sweet peony, it’s my dream
