Frances
It's dark in here...lines are down house it makes a moaning sound wind looks for ways to get inside rain tests your will fear tests your pride came down here to rest my head now they're saying that I've been mislead sky blue water it turned to brown on the night that Frances came to town My wife she died some 10 years back she gave me 60 years and a son named Jack he's got an office with a view above it all I got a trailer and a brand new southern drawl never took a thing I didn't earn there ain't no lesson that I'm afraid to learn they told me to leave but I hunkered down on the night that Frances came to town You run if you got somewhere to go eyes of hope growing blind I brought my life in a U-Haul truck I ain't leaving it behind I tried to pray but it don't sound right with Him not willing to put up a fight I'm 82 and a long way from home Songtexteand I'm sure getting tired of being alone so c'mon girl lay down next to me and take me to where I wanna be she took my pain allowed me to drown on the night that Frances came to town Aus Songtexte Mania
