nobody's girl - queen city lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
welcome, honey, to queen city
twenty miles west of the line
pretty in mississippi
where the beaten path unwinds
leave your gold, your casseroles
your bottles of sweet red wine
your losing hand, your wedding band
polished to a shine

[chorus]
no matter what you’re runnin’ from
from whichever road you’ve come
pilgrims’ children on a mother’s arm

[verse 2]
magazines describe the scene
when the caravans came to town
twenty thousand strangеrs crowded in from all around
paid respects, sunday bеst
a sermon and then a song
clappin’ hands, a marchin’ band
gild the lily ’til dawn

[chorus]
no matter what you’re runnin’ from
from whichever road you’ve come
pilgrims’ children on a mother’s arm
[bridge]
kelly was buried under many stars
scattered in the sight of god
fourteen babies, one unborn
gravestones new and worn
hills of roses, hills of th+rns

[chorus]
no matter what you’re runnin’ from
from whichever road you’ve come
pilgrims’ children on a mother’s arm
