tall travis - the ballad of little roxanne - live lyrics
little roxanne well she was born
to a family of ten who the world did scorn
they worshiped a golden eye
that would save them all someday
little roxanne wanted many things
but she was married off when she was 16
away she ran, and she never looked back
to that dark day
little roxanne, rat runaway would steal the golden eye someday
take it home to her family and blow everything to h+ll
she knew thеy’d all fight over it and it would be their ruin
shе didn’t know when or if she’d find it
but she hoped it would be soon
little roxanne found a pirate ship
and worked aboard to earn her keep
she was clever and bright and the captain saw
and made her the first mate
and one day while ransacking an earl
amidst all of the jade and pearls
was the fabled golden eye, she saw
and she said it must be fate
little roxanne rat runaway
stole the golden eye that day
took it home to her family and blew everything to h+ll
they bickered and fought and clawed and screeched
and bit each other’s tails
she didn’t stay to see the cult’s destruction
away, little roxanne sailed
little roxanne found a place on the shore
and dedicated herself forevermore
to helping girls she once was like with no place else to go
and now no one knows of her pirate days
for she’s just known for her char’table ways
and no one speaks of the golden eye which sank beneath the waves
little roxanne rat runaway
stole the golden eye that day
took it home to her family and blew everything to h+ll
they bickered and fought and clawed and screeched
and bit each other’s tails
she didn’t stay to see the cult’s destruction
away, little roxanne sailed
