Otis Run

from Sweet Martha by Sweet Martha

/

lyrics

Extol in the rising sun
Feign to have done no wrong
But this boy, he's from Otis Run
And he's fettered deep by the devil

He prays, God should quell his fate
On this road, unfamilar face
So come, all good Christian men
Don't take Otis Run from him

Oh, Maddie Rose says she wants me to
Come lay down with me tonight
Starve the candlelight
Oh won't you be my own
Won't you hold me til we die

Extol in the rising moon
In the malady of a lullaby
And the moss strums the hymn of his loving death
Oooh

So come, all good Christian men
And all fearful songs of hate
His ghost, whispers loving ways
In the bottoms of Otis Run

Oh, Maddie Rose says she wants me to
Come lay down with me tonight
Starve the candlelight
Oh won't you be my own
Won't you hold me til we die

Oooh
