Maria Sugarcane - Brian Wright[00:00:00]

In the south end of the county[00:00:13]

Near the highway and the trains[00:00:16]

There's a river long since dried[00:00:19]

A river just the same[00:00:21]

When I was just a boy[00:00:24]

I would the lie there on it's banks[00:00:27]

With my brother and the summer[00:00:29]

And Maria Sugarcane[00:00:32]

And my brother was born shaky[00:00:39]

And he wore our father's rage[00:00:42]

And he stumbled through the autumn[00:00:44]

Underneath the winter's weight[00:00:47]

And he rode a motorcycle[00:00:50]

That he'd drive down to the banks[00:00:52]

Of the river in the summer[00:00:55]

With Maria Sugarcane[00:00:58]

And how they loved each other[00:01:05]

And that love was wild as hope[00:01:07]

And none would come between[00:01:10]

My father's wandering ghost[00:01:13]

And I had seen him beat her[00:01:15]

Time and time before[00:01:18]

But as I loved my brother[00:01:21]

I loved Maria so much more[00:01:24]

I loved her young and pretty[00:01:32]

And I loved her wild and strong[00:01:34]

And I'd never loved another[00:01:37]

I'd loved her for so long[00:01:40]

And never would I hurt her[00:01:43]

Never see her meet with harm[00:01:45]

When I told her how I'd found him[00:01:48]

She fell into my arms[00:01:51]

Told her how I'd found him[00:01:57]

Down there by the river banks[00:02:00]

That the angels were around him[00:02:03]

But that I was just too late[00:02:05]

And they carried him off to heaven[00:02:08]

My father's sins and all[00:02:11]

But I did not hear the shot[00:02:14]

And I did not see him fall[00:02:17]

And Maria loved my brother[00:02:23]

With her purest bluest eyes[00:02:26]

And he carried it in paper[00:02:29]

And it never left his side[00:02:32]

And I married her two summers past[00:02:34]

The year my brother died[00:02:37]

And though sometimes I hear her[00:02:40]

I've never seen her cry[00:02:43]

And I know Maria loves me[00:02:50]

But it just ain't the same[00:02:52]

As the way she loved my brother[00:02:55]

In those summers on the banks[00:02:57]

Of the river long since dried up[00:03:00]

Maria Sugarcane[00:03:03]

In the south end of the county[00:03:06]

Near the highway and the trains[00:03:08]

In the south end of the county[00:03:15]

Near the highway and the trains[00:03:18]

There's a river long since dried up[00:03:21]

But a river just the same[00:03:23]

And that's where I found my brother[00:03:26]

And Maria's one true love[00:03:29]

I knew that I would kill him[00:03:32]

And Maria she would come[00:03:34]

In the corner of the graveyard[00:04:05]

Near the spot my brother lays[00:04:07]

Far past the noble families[00:04:10]

Two more plots are saved[00:04:13]

When I and fair Maria[00:04:16]

Seen our final days[00:04:19]

May they bury her between us[00:04:22]

Maria Sugarcane[00:04:24]
