Louise's Church Songtext
I wrote this song for Louise Nevelson, the sculptor,

also Billie Holiday, and a group of kick-ass women artists.




Sappho was a poet

Billie was a real musician
Frida drew the moon

I'm goin' by Louise's Church

she built in the city

art of grace and style

that could make me smile

talk to me

goddess of life and music

shine on me awhile



Sappho was a poet
Billie was a real musician

Frida drew the moon

the candle at Louise's Church

lite it for your vision

for the changes

to save the planet of ages

talk to us

heavenly Muse

shine on us awhile
