Blackbirds and Crows

BLACKBIRDS AND THE CROWS
Nashville Bluegrass Band

Eva was a fast thang, most everybody knew
While other girls were running wild, Eva flew
Her life was the fast lane, but it soon began show
So I begged her with me to go, to a little home here in Idaho,
With the Blackbirds and the Crows

One year we were happy, tried to keep our lives on track
While I was looking to the future, Eva was lookin back
She said she missed her old life, she was truthful I suppose
But the truth was she could never leave, Truth was all the nights I'd grieve
If I ever had to let her go.

Blackbird sat on a fence line
Crow flew through the sky
I whispered low into Eva's ear
Eva you're gonna die...
She's a half a mile out and a quarter across
Beneath those wheat field rows
And no on knows who put her there
But the blackbirds and the crows

Folks come by and we sit around
And I tell them how she's gone
I tell them how she packed her bags And wrecked our happy home

Oh I tell them she down in Atlanta,
Doin' cocaine and God only knows
But Eva's not gone she's here with me
Right here where she'll always be
With the blackbirds and the crows

Repeat chorus
