My Sweet Camelia
I left a few sick mistake at the bottom of marrowbone lake
They're in a bed, made of silt, and a water moccasin quilt
See, she loved to love me not
So I picked them petals with buckshot
A camellia flower wilts, and I don't feel a speck of guilt
Oh, my sweet Camelia
Oh, I hate I had to kill ya
But nothin' lasts fo' always
Even a prison sentence
Just a matter of days
Just a matter of days
You see, I think she thought I cared
All for her and our affair
Well I guess in retrospect
She was such a beautiful wreck
So I'll pay the price, my dear
Hеre's to a measly 23 years
I've got more beds to make
At the bottom of marrowbone lake
Oh, my sweet Camelia
Oh, I hate I had to kill ya
But nothin' lasts fo' always
Even a prison sentence
Just a matter of days
Just a matter of days
They're in a bed, made of silt, and a water moccasin quilt
See, she loved to love me not
So I picked them petals with buckshot
A camellia flower wilts, and I don't feel a speck of guilt
Oh, my sweet Camelia
Oh, I hate I had to kill ya
But nothin' lasts fo' always
Even a prison sentence
Just a matter of days
Just a matter of days
You see, I think she thought I cared
All for her and our affair
Well I guess in retrospect
She was such a beautiful wreck
So I'll pay the price, my dear
Hеre's to a measly 23 years
I've got more beds to make
At the bottom of marrowbone lake
Oh, my sweet Camelia
Oh, I hate I had to kill ya
But nothin' lasts fo' always
Even a prison sentence
Just a matter of days
Just a matter of days
