JOANNA NEWSOM - ERIN Lyrics

Erin, erin, erin!Erin across americaDo now cheer me onCan't you hear the song for you?Quick, now - caramel dipGive it up to the runaway shipHail, now - hail to the bitchThe hairy literary with the nervous, nervous twitchShy, your light pops outAnd we stand there astoundedAnd we pound our heads and shoutWe shout hallelujaLook what it did to yaOh, a horrible messAnd we're eating by the river in the sunday dressOh, serenade meEatin' my biscuits and gravyYou are missing from meAs you chug with your uncle in the red red seaI will wait, or willKnock my knees and talk to you, oh so stillOh shanandoahWe just a-cross the wide missouriYou are so bonny - shhhh do not worryQuick, now - caramel dipGive it up to the runaway shipLife's so sweet and so lowBuried in the water, yeah, buried in the snowSo dear, deep and so darkSleeping on the pavement in the central parkTwentieth floor balcony house is what is home to meTwentieth floor balcony house is what is home to meTwenty-up floor balcony house is what is home to me
