When Lilly Was Queen - Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show[00:00:00]
Lilly pearl standin' by the woodstove[00:00:00]
Cookin' up a pot of fatback and beans[00:00:03]
Aprons made outta martha white flour sack[00:00:06]
Them was the days when lilly was queen[00:00:09]
There's gonna be a family reunion[00:00:17]
Down around little river park[00:00:19]
Lilly got a brand new baby they say[00:00:22]
Jesse brown had to up and run away[00:00:25]
It might as well rain 'cause nobody came[00:00:28]
Jesse left so fast the baby got no name[00:00:31]
Lilly pearl what'cha gonna name your baby baby baby[00:00:35]
Lilly pearl what'cha gonna name your child[00:00:41]
Lilly pearl they say he run away and left you crazy crazy crazy[00:00:47]
But ooh ooh your man had a pretty smile[00:00:52]
Lilly pearl told most folks[00:01:04]
She could raise her baby fine without a man[00:01:07]
But she cried at the table to her kin folk[00:01:10]
Her people cried with her but did they understand[00:01:13]
Lilly pearl still standin' by the woodstove[00:01:26]
Talkin' to a pot of fatback and beans[00:01:29]
Twenty years later still cookin' a spread[00:01:32]
But there's no reunion 'cause the family's mostly dead[00:01:34]
They took her baby at the age of 13[00:01:38]
Left her livin' in the days when lilly was queen[00:01:40]
Lilly pearl did you ever name your baby baby baby baby[00:01:45]
Lilly pearl do you ever miss your child[00:01:51]
Lilly pearl his daddy run away and left you crazy crazy crazy[00:01:57]
But ooh ooh your man had a pretty smile[00:02:02]
Lilly pearl you never gonna know your baby baby baby[00:02:08]
Lilly pearl they never let you see your child[00:02:14]
