The Porter Draw

Myra Joyce
They did dress you up in ribbons and bows carried you in swaddling clothes along the rug outside your home there, the Salmon river
Point me out the tea, the kettle right along the rose, the nettle very fine never been better, here the Salmon river
They did dress you up in ribbons and bows ferried you in your mother's clothes counting fingers, counting toes out along the water
We all woke up to find you there brandy eyes, corn husk hair a picture of a woman so fair Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
They did dress you up in ribbons and bows married you in fancy clothes like a female calico you blended in the nighttime
There we sat, cloth on the table talking 'bout no one was able to imagine death a child's fable glaring in the moonlight
They did dress you up in ribbons and bows buried you in Sunday clothes no on knowing where to go along the Salmon river
