Sweet N Low

I hear my lover call
Singing slow, sweet, and low
Ready to lose it all
There she goes, sweet and low

Mother said
"You're even worse than I was as a child"
So help me, Tess
If I see that boy within a mile, I'll kill him

I said, "But mama, I love her, she stole my soul with a kiss
She tasted like cigarettes, and her daddy is rich
Keeps my heart in her pocket, she likes the gun in my pants
I'll run away, marry her if I just get a chance"

I hear my lover call
Singing slow, sweet, and low
Ready to lose it all
There she goes, sweet and low

All through the night
Through the air
The warmest light
My baby's there

She took my hand
She said, "Haven't I given you everything?"
She said, "Let's not forget
When you were worth less than the air you breathe"

I said, "But mama, I love her, she stole my soul with a kiss
She tasted like cigarettes, and her daddy is rich
Keeps my heart in her pocket, she likes the gun in my pants
I'll run away, marry her if I just get a chance"

I hear my lover call
Singing slow, sweet, and low
Ready to lose it all
There she goes, sweet and low

All through the night
Through the air
The warmest light
My baby's there
