Drive-By Truckers - Little Bonnie songtekst

Je score:




On the day that she was buried

Her Daddy stood out by the cemetery fence

Prayed to God for forgiveness

For surely all of this is punishment for my sins



They put her in the family garden

Said you could hear his heart breaking miles away

All the men pitched in and bought a marble angel

To mark the piece of land where little Bonnie lay



My Grandma said she would keep her in the mornings

So her Mama could sleep a bit and do the chores and such

She'd read her stories about little girls and magic powers

That would never let a pretty angel hurt



Her Mama's always been a beauty

She's still beautiful to this very day

But they say Bonnie's crystal eyes put the stars to shame

Maybe heaven needed Bonnie's face



My Grandma said she would keep her in the mornings

A swollen angel who never would complain

She'd read her stories about little girls and princesses

Whose Daddy's don't feel punished for what heaven takes away



Little Bonnie never married

Little Bonnie never even made it four

But I grew up in her presence

Even though she was gone before I'z born

Even though she was gone before I'z born
