J. Tillman - James Blues lyrics
[J. Tillman - James Blues lyrics]
James incurred the wrath of a jealous woman
Not long after that
Spending all his weekends trying to relearn
How a young man yearns after a nurse
Poor, poor James
Most nights he has dreams
All his teeth are missing
Wakes up in a sweat
His impotent heart racing
He throws back the sheets
Begins to weep without much feeling
Poor, poor James
Desire is what makes upright mammals human
Put me out to graze give this beast a burden
Because the universe
Makes much more sense without a purpose
Poor, poor James
Not long after that
Spending all his weekends trying to relearn
How a young man yearns after a nurse
Poor, poor James
Most nights he has dreams
All his teeth are missing
Wakes up in a sweat
His impotent heart racing
He throws back the sheets
Begins to weep without much feeling
Poor, poor James
Desire is what makes upright mammals human
Put me out to graze give this beast a burden
Because the universe
Makes much more sense without a purpose
Poor, poor James
