Lisa Sawyer
She was born in New Orleans
New Orleans, Louisiana
Branded with the name, Lisa Sawyer
Circa 1963
Grandmother was Indian, Indian
Her mother's name is Eartha
Swift as the wind, fierce as fire
Father's name was Victor
Worked two jobs to provide for his flock
She was the youngest of seven
Seven
She grew up on Luisa Street
Chaos around, put aside cozy
Small but a mansion in her eyes
Eyes, eyes
Mansion
Never had much money, money
But was filthy rich
The wealth you couldn't get
From a dark casino or a lottery ticket
They had love, love, love
Rich in love
She had the complexion of
The complexion of a sweet praline
Hair long as the sea
Heart warm like the Louisiana sun
Voice like a symphony of the most beautiful instruments, woah
Beautiful
At the age of sixteen, sixteen, she found
Christ at an alter all along he was calling her name
The gas was smoking from an old wrinkled mane, mane, mane
Gas, woah
She was born in New Orleans
She was born in New Orleans
She was born in New Orleans
New Orleans
