Whim of Iron - Slaid Cleaves[00:00:00]
She had a whim of iron[00:00:04]
You couldn't tell her no[00:00:07]
And if you did she'd prove you wrong[00:00:10]
And say I told you so [00:00:12]
She'd get a big idea[00:00:15]
Friends would roll their eyes[00:00:18]
Then she'd pull it off[00:00:21]
When on one else would even dare to try[00:00:22]
She had a whim of iron[00:00:26]
Like the time she met[00:00:29]
This broke down poet[00:00:31]
He was a World War Two vet[00:00:34]
One day he proposed[00:00:37]
And she said I do [00:00:40]
To this gentle soul[00:00:42]
And she didn't care that he was 92[00:00:44]
She tried to buy the old church[00:00:48]
Before they tore it down[00:00:51]
Took up a collection[00:00:53]
All over town[00:00:56]
She raised a half a million[00:00:59]
Fixed it up so nice[00:01:01]
Now there's actors[00:01:04]
And dancers[00:01:07]
And singers[00:01:08]
Where there used to be bats and mice[00:01:09]
She ran for office once[00:01:34]
In the state of Maine[00:01:37]
She said I'll bet I can't do worse[00:01:40]
Than old what's his name [00:01:43]
She shook things up[00:01:45]
For a little while[00:01:48]
Told the good old boys off good[00:01:51]
With a wink and a smile[00:01:54]
She had a whim of iron[00:01:56]
You couldn't tell her no[00:01:59]
And if you did she'd prove you wrong[00:02:02]
And say I told you so [00:02:04]
She'd get a big idea[00:02:07]
Friends would roll their eyes[00:02:10]
Then she'd pull it off[00:02:12]
When on one else would even dare to try[00:02:14]
She had a whim of iron[00:02:18]
You couldn't tell her no[00:02:21]
She had a whim of iron[00:02:23]
