On one side was Albany Avenue[00:00:11]

On the other side a rushing creek[00:00:22]

Laid in Flemish bond[00:00:29]

Three stories high a fortress of brick[00:00:32]

This was a place of employ[00:00:37]

The Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:00:40]

But it still hurts[00:00:42]

When I think of the privileged captivity[00:00:43]

Of the mill girl like me[00:00:47]

Kept sequestered[00:00:51]

Only seen on a rope bridge[00:00:52]

That hangs high over the stream[00:00:55]

We are kept like galley slaves[00:00:57]

While strangers decorate our father's graves[00:01:02]

A dark secret of this river this creek[00:01:05]

This stream oh what does it mean[00:01:09]

You'll hear no flattery at the factory[00:01:14]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:01:20]

There comes an undertone of frantic in her stitchery[00:01:28]

Idle talk do the turn to the wicked[00:01:42]

Take a listen you'll surely see[00:01:45]

Between the girls a foul ensued[00:01:50]

Our heroine turns in word[00:01:54]

To her collection[00:01:57]

To examine her collection[00:01:58]

Her collection of two hundred and twenty-five smiles[00:02:00]

You'll hear no flattery at the factory[00:02:05]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:02:14]

You'll hear no flattery at the factory[00:02:21]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:02:27]

Each decision we make is based on love or fear[00:02:29]

Shall I be kind or cruel or fake[00:02:40]

Shall I now shed a tear[00:02:49]

You can see them up in the windows of the factory[00:02:54]

Any night of the week[00:02:58]

Like beautifully-gowned wax figures on display[00:03:01]

With the loveliest eyes you've ever seen[00:03:04]

Squinting to baste the flouts[00:03:08]

Basting underskirts as big as wagon wheels[00:03:10]

Stabbing feelings with a needle[00:03:15]

Do you like how that feels[00:03:19]

You'll hear no flattery at the factory[00:03:27]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:03:33]

You'll hear no flattery at the factory[00:03:38]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:03:58]

At the Kinderhook Hoopskirt Works[00:04:03]
