lyrics

She came down here from Alberta
She said she’d never seen the Sun shine this way
But we’d never noticed
Cause here’s where we was born and raised
And we ain’t travelled far

What she loved was the thrill
We’d saddle Tony and Jasper and Bill
And we’d run em’ full speed
Through the branches, jump the ditches and the creeks
Till the summer did end

How she moved through our friends
They said they’d never seen someone shine that way then
And since her eyes they were weak
And seemed to water the sides of her cheeks
We stood fast by her side

When the checks never cleared
And the times she would just disappear
And the phone never rang
And it’d make you think back, Lord, towards everything

Oh, and then there she’d be
From Lord only knows where, there she’d be
At the bus station sign
And you’d just leave all those questions behind

Now, from Fayette down to Richmond
There’s a river that runs in between
And that’s where I told her
Told her I was fed up with everything

She had nothing to say
Lord, I’d never seen so quiet a day

Now, from Fayette down to Richmond
There’s a river that runs in between
And that’s where I told her
Told her I was fed up with everything
