The Gourds - Two Girls lyrics
[The Gourds - Two Girls lyrics]
They didn't even look like clouds
I was underneath the weather
My friends looked like a crowd
The swimmin' hole was full of rum
I tried to find out why
All I learned was this my friend
You got to swim before you fly
I got two girls
One's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse
Passed by not long ago
Asked me where the action was
I said I did not know
As they disappeared into the brush
I heard the driver say
"He's a little slow between the ears
"He's always been that way"
I got two girls
One's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
Jolly Jane just lays around
And listens with her mouth
She's had about a dozen husbands
And the last one pulled out
Who will bring her dinner
In the weary years ahead?
All she'll get from me is sympathy
I got no time to see she's fed
I got two girls
One's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
It's cold down on the bayou
They say it's in your mind
But the moccasins are treadin' ice
And leavin' strange designs
Cajuns say the last time
This happened they weren't here
Aw Beaumont's full of penguins
And I'm a-playin' it by ear
I got two girls
One's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
And one I do not know i got two girls
One's in heaven and one's below
Oh, one I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
