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[00:00:48]

trying to memorize every line[00:00:52]

sweet lorraine,[00:00:56]

ah, sweet lorraine.[00:01:00]

sweet lady of death wants me to die[00:01:05]

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,[00:01:40]

sweet lorraine,[00:01:44]

ah, sweet lorraine.[00:01:47]

well you know that it's a shame and a pity[00:01:52]

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

and you never learned nothing 'bout country ways,[00:02:01]

ah, 'bout country ways.[00:02:08]

the joy of life she dresses in black[00:02:14]

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

and her face keeps flashing that she's got the knack,[00:02:31]

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

all she's learned she's had to memorize[00:02:40]

and the only way you'll ever get her high[00:02:44]

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

sweet lorraine,[00:02:52]

ah, sweet lorraine.[00:02:56]

now she's the one who gives us all those magical things[00:03:02]

and reads us stories out of the i ching,[00:03:11]

then she passes out a whole new basket of rings[00:03:19]

that when you put on your hand[00:03:25]

makes you one of the angel band[00:03:28]

and gives you the power to be a man,[00:03:33]

but what it does for her you never quite understand[00:03:37]

sweet lorraine,[00:03:41]

ah, sweet lorraine.[00:03:44]

well you know that it's a shame and a pity[00:03:50]

you were raised up in the city[00:03:54]

and you never learned nothing 'bout country ways,[00:03:58]

oh 'bout country ways, oh 'bout country ways,[00:04:05]

yeah, about country ways[00:04:13]
