lyrics

Lily walks the streets at night; her boots are tall, her dress is tight
Never look her in the eye, she loves to fuss and fight
She thinks about many ways to laze about and whine
The only tool she has to win is her body, not her mind

She’s a country girl with a city smile, it’ll burn you darn straight through
Give her everything she wants, you’ll be left with two left shoes
Can’t believe a word she says, she’s built a pack of lies
Mississippi queen with no regime, she’ll defecate your mind

Go oh oh, gotta let her go
Let her go oh oh, she’s a heavy load

She found a man; she loved the man in between the sheets
A Beretta Storm underneath his arm: that’s the way he liked to sleep
If you trust a man with a loaded gun, you learn to run and hide
Like Lily did and Lily does in the rooms behind her mind

Go oh oh, gotta let her go
Let her go oh oh, she’s a heavy load
Go oh oh, let her go
Let her go oh oh, she’s a heavy load

Solo

Lily does what Lily loves in the streets that she calls home
She never wonders where or why; she walks those streets alone
There was a time she walked the line, they call the great divide
She made her choice, it went awry: now she’s lost her mind

Go oh oh, gotta let her go
Let her go oh oh, she’s a heavy load
Go oh oh, let her go
Let her go oh oh, she’s a heavy load
