Camellia
Going down to the river bank
Half past drunk on wine
Camellia and the cat tails swayin'
All around me
Her lips drip sweet like honeydew
Her voice sings like a silver chime
Love feeling washing all over me
Baby I'm drowning
But to have our hearts together
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
I'd even rope down the morning sun
If you asked me to
Sweet Camellia I'd like to steal you
Away from all the troubles in your life
Through the vines I see you climbing
Camellia what's it gonna take to make you mine
It's a long ride down from Pontiac
Through the mud sleet and the grime
Make that push across the Ottawa River
On down the border line
Gonna feel just like the delta
When you put your little hand in mine
Sit back in that bucket seat baby
And settle in for the ride
We can chase down forgiveness
We can sail across the sea
We can go where they're never gonna find us
Sweet camellia you and me
Give the jury a guilty plea
Ain't no deal that I wouldn't make
just to fill this fantasy
Half past drunk on wine
Camellia and the cat tails swayin'
All around me
Her lips drip sweet like honeydew
Her voice sings like a silver chime
Love feeling washing all over me
Baby I'm drowning
But to have our hearts together
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
I'd even rope down the morning sun
If you asked me to
Sweet Camellia I'd like to steal you
Away from all the troubles in your life
Through the vines I see you climbing
Camellia what's it gonna take to make you mine
It's a long ride down from Pontiac
Through the mud sleet and the grime
Make that push across the Ottawa River
On down the border line
Gonna feel just like the delta
When you put your little hand in mine
Sit back in that bucket seat baby
And settle in for the ride
We can chase down forgiveness
We can sail across the sea
We can go where they're never gonna find us
Sweet camellia you and me
Give the jury a guilty plea
Ain't no deal that I wouldn't make
just to fill this fantasy
