Liza (from Pull the Brake)

from A Free History Of​.​.​. by Wrinkle Neck Mules

lyrics

Oh Liza, oh Liza, it's time
To make our run in the night
Across the lower 40 and through the break in the pines
Oh Liza, oh Liza, it's time

I met you in the Spring one cold, crazy day
Snow falling with bright sunshine
I never understood a word that you said
Something about the blue in your mind
You told your father I was an evil man
And he cornered me at the feed store in town
He said, "dont you go near Liza boy or I'll put you in the ground"
All I could do was crack a smile

I dreamed we danced a waltz right up to the timberline
And tiptoed along the power wires
Your brown hair was trailing us half a mile behind
Oh Liza, I dreamed you were mine
You told your brother I was an evil man
And he came at me with a machete in his hand
But he never saw my pistol Lord and when he hit the ground
His eyes were shiny, silver and wild

Oh Liza, Oh Liza, you're mine
I would'nt try to struggle or fight
Across the swollen river and to the old abandoned mine
Oh Liza, Oh Liza you're mine
