Swamp Girl - Frankie laine[00:00:00]
Where the crane flies through the marshes[00:00:03]
And the turtles sun their shells[00:00:08]
Where the water rat goes swimmin[00:00:13]
That's where my swamp girl dwells[00:00:20]
Where the sunlight never wanders[00:00:25]
And the moonlight never falls[00:00:30]
Where the water's black with the devil's track[00:00:35]
That's where my swamp girl calls[00:00:41]
What did she say there[00:00:46]
The girl with the golden hair[00:00:48]
To make me follow her down there[00:00:49]
How did she look when she took me by the hand[00:00:52]
Tonight her hair will float in the water[00:00:59]
And the gold will no longer shine[00:01:02]
It will spread like a fan in the water[00:01:05]
While she makes a mysterious sign[00:01:08]
I have seen that sign before[00:01:11]
Her eyes aren't like the whippoorwill[00:01:15]
And her eyes aren't like the frog[00:01:20]
Her eyes are like the damned bat[00:01:24]
Stretchin' in the dawn[00:01:30]
I have seen her face in the water[00:01:33]
And the chilling look in her eyes[00:01:36]
And if you see her then you must flee her[00:01:40]
Never follow where disillusion lies[00:01:43]
Or will you go to the girl with the golden hair[00:01:45]
Down there where her work is done[00:01:49]
Will you embrace the night[00:01:51]
And turn your back on the sun[00:01:53]
She'll say its better there in the water[00:01:58]
Where it's cool and calm and serene[00:02:01]
She will call you to come to the water[00:02:04]
To a world made of emerald green[00:02:06]
I have heard that call before[00:02:09]
I can hear it when I'm teary[00:02:13]
I can hear it when I'm old[00:02:18]
I can hear it when the joy of living[00:02:23]
Seems to have lost its glow[00:02:28]
For my Swamp Girl lives inside of me[00:02:32]
And she leaves me pale and wan[00:02:37]
She dares me she tears me[00:02:41]
Like paper dolls are torn[00:02:47]
Calling Come to the deep[00:02:51]
Where your sleep is without a dream[00:02:53]
