Third Reel

歌詞

Well, they've torn up the streets and Burned off the fields, And turned all the dogs to the woods; They took up the cross But they lost the third reel And the picture was just getting good; Evening is crawling, Summer is Lost - They're dragging the pond for it now, They've painted the windows all shut And the frost has Warmed everything up somehow And you can ask me for nothing at all And I'll always be what you please, You can never leave nothing behind you And I always will love Louise You've seen this before And to hear you tell, It's not worth the tears or the rain; There's nothing worth keeping But nothing you'd sell, Though you'd trade it all for a seat on the train; When your breath can be seen It hangs at your knees But raises itself like a crow, You can jump for your life From your place in the trees But you'd do well to just watch it go And you can ask me for nothing at all And I'll always be what you please, You can never leave nothing behind you And I always will love Louise You can send me alone To the shed after dark, Lay me down in my Easter Clothes, Or send them along To my folks with your prayers But save me at least one of those; You can make me your only one Or leave me today And send no more mail than you do, I may never be able To reach you this way But I always will reach out to you And you can ask me for nothing at all And I'll always be what you please, You can never leave nothing behind you And I always will love Louise I always will love Louise
