[J. Tillman - New Imperial Grand Blues lyrics]

Florance hanging under the willow
Her daddy's hanging from those beams
Keeping perfect time with the creaking
That girl's only got 18 wheels
Spent enough time with the living
To know the living don't spend nothing on me
So leave your wine and soul in a mansion
Oh, meet me in the big red sea

Sister there's no man you could save
Oh, piece no mush American taint
Bible school can teach you about suffering
Oh, but suffering doesn't know God's name
Spent enough time with the living
To know the living don't spend nothing on me
So tell your uncles just where to go
Oh, meet me in the big red sea

Holding your head under the water
Doesn't make you a white whale
Holding your head high in the riot

Doesn't make you a man, Jane
Spent enough time with the living
To know the living don't spend nothing on me
So satan put the chairs on the altar
Meet me in the big red sea
You can't steal this remembrance of me
Oh, meet me in the big red sea
