Yellow Hammers


It was a day like today 
that your mama died 
It was cold and show fell 
so deep that you stayed inside 
and no, I don't know how it feels 
anymore than you know how it feels 
to long for you 
and I long for you 
It was a night like last night 
that you headed west 
You travelled light 
like your heart 
you gave your past a rest 
when your luggage came you broke down 
you had it packed away 
but not for long 
tell me what's wrong 
Roseangelie 
How do I get to Roseandelie? 
How do I get to you? 
It was a week ago last week 
in a parking lot 
we were standing still 
we were going nowhere 
That's when I found out 
the evil that lurks 
behind even the best man 
couldn't help but find me in the end. 
That's what you said 
Where did I leave her? 
Was it in Mississippi? 
Maybe it was Chicago 
Or Los Angeles
