Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine - Country Joe & The Fish[00:00:00]

She hides in an attic concealed on a shelf[00:00:18]

Behind volumes of literature based on herself[00:00:26]

And runs across the pages like some tiny elf[00:00:35]

Knowing that it's hard to find[00:00:40]

Stuff way back in her mind[00:00:44]

Winds up spending all of her time[00:00:49]

Trying to memorize every line[00:00:53]

Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine[00:00:57]

Sweet lady of death wants me to die[00:01:06]

So she can come sit by my bedside and sigh[00:01:14]

And wipe away the tears from all my friends eyes[00:01:23]

Then softly she will explain[00:01:28]

Just exactly who was to blame[00:01:31]

For causing me to go insane[00:01:36]

And finally blow out my brain[00:01:41]

Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine[00:01:44]

Well you know that it's a shame and a pity[00:01:53]

You were raised up in the city[00:01:57]

And you never learned nothing about country ways[00:02:01]

Ah about country ways[00:02:09]

The joy of life she dresses in black[00:02:15]

With celestial secrets engraved in her back[00:02:23]

And her face keeps flashing that she's got the knack[00:02:32]

But you know when you look into her eyes[00:02:36]

All she's learned she's had to memorize[00:02:41]

And the only way you'll ever get her high[00:02:45]

Is to let her do her thing and then watch you die[00:02:49]

Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine[00:02:53]

Now she's the one who gives us all those magical things[00:03:03]

And reads us stories out of the I Ching[00:03:12]

Then she passes out a whole new basket of rings[00:03:20]

That when you put on your hand[00:03:26]

Makes you one of the Angel Band[00:03:29]

And gives you the power to be a man[00:03:34]

But what it does for her you never quite understand[00:03:38]

Sweet Lorraine ah sweet Lorraine[00:03:42]

Well you know that it's a shame and a pity[00:03:51]

You were raised up in the city[00:03:55]

And you never learned nothing about country ways[00:03:59]

Oh about country ways oh about country ways[00:04:06]

Yeah about country ways[00:04:15]
