Blue Banisters(MP3_320K)
[00:00.30] There's a picture on the wall of me on a John Deere
[00:04.19] Jenny handed me a beer, said, "How the hell did you get there?"
[00:08.97] Oklahoma
[00:12.95] Mm, mm
[00:17.73] There were flowers that were dry, sittin' on the dresser
[00:22.43] She asked me where they're from, I said, "A place I don't remember"
[00:27.21] Oklahoma (oh)
[00:36.24] Jenny jumped into the pool, she was swimmin' with Nikki Lane
[00:40.51] She said, "Most men don't want a woman with a legacy, it's of age"
[00:45.28] She said, "You can't be a muse and be happy, too
[00:49.27] You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy"
[01:02.02] And that scared me
[01:10.53] 'Cause I met a man who
[01:12.91] Said he'd come back every May
[01:17.43] Just to help me if I'd paint
[01:21.14] My banisters blue
[01:25.13] Blue banisters, ooh
[01:30.45] Said he'd fix my weathervane
[01:34.96] Give me children, take away my pain
[01:39.21] And paint my banisters blue
[01:43.20] My banisters blue
[01:47.71] There's a hole that's in my heart all my women try and heal
[01:51.96] They're doin' a good job convincin' me that it's not real
[01:57.01] It's heat lightning
[02:00.73] Oh, oh
[02:05.77] 'Cause there's a man that's in my past, there's a man that's still right here
[02:11.08] He's real enough to touch and in my darkest nights
[02:15.24] He's shinin'
[02:19.49] Ooh
[02:23.74] Jenny was smokin' by the pool, we were writin' with Nikki Lane
[02:28.79] I said, "I'm scared of the Santa Clarita Fires, I wish that it would rain"
[02:34.10] I said, "The power of us three can bring absolutely anything
[02:38.61] Except that one thing, the diamonds, the rust, and the rain
[02:50.57] The thing that washes away the pain"
[02:59.60] But that's okay, 'cause
[03:02.26] Now when weather turns to May
[03:06.77] All my sisters come to paint
[03:11.02] My banisters green
[03:14.74] My blue banisters grey
[03:20.58] Tex and Mex are in the Bay
[03:25.36] Chucky's makin' birthday cake
[03:29.61] Chickens runnin' barefeet, there's a baby on the way
[03:34.66] And now my blue banisters are green and grey
[03:42.89] Ah-ah
[03:47.14] Summer comes, winter goes
[03:51.93] Spring, I skip, God knows
[03:56.71] Summer comes, winter goes
[04:00.96] Spring, I sleep, Heaven knows
[04:06.80] Every time it turns to May
[04:11.58] All my sisters fly to me
[04:15.03] To paint, paint
