Thibodeux
Quelle: Spotify
He blew through town like a northwest wind
Strong, cool and lookin' to sin
Lafayette - I never will forget that night
He gave me a wink and pulled up a chair
Bought me a drink and smoothed his hair
He said "I's just passin' through. How about a light?"
I told him I lived down in Thibodeux
Asked how far he had to go
He just smiled and said "I don't feel much like talkin' "
Lady on the tube said it looks like rain
He cursed and said "Hell, what's your name?
I'm on that Harley - looks like I'm stayin' the night"
Ooooh, Thibodeux
Better watch out, I'm ridin' the dark horse to his minions
Oh Oooh, my Thibodeux
I don't need your little whispers and your unkind opinons
Oh Oooh, Thibodeux
Well he walked in like he owned my place
From the hall I watched his face
Eyes glacier blue and cold as Hell
He threw his wet coat on the floor
Poured a drink and locked the door
He said "C'mon in here girl, there's somethin' I wanna tell ya"
He said "Sit down child, there's somethin' I've been dyin' to tell ya"
"She was tall and dark and sad like you
On her left arm she had an eagle tattoo
It said 'Airborne' - she hadn't flown in a long while
So I asked if I could kiss her
and if we went for a ride would anyone miss her
She said 'Hell no!' ... and I said 'well alright'
She said 'Hell no' ... and I said 'well alright'
Took her down a red clay Georgia road
In the black night I pulled her close
And I told her I would forever love her
She was the sweetest thing in Ellijay
And I made sure she saw the blade
And as I watched her fade, I thought 'now that was somethin' '
As I watched her fade, I thought 'yes, she was somethin' ' "
Ooooh, Thibodeux
Better watch out, I'm ridin' the dark horse to his minion
Oh Oooh, my Thibodeux
I don't need your little whispers and your unkind opinons
Oh Oooh, Thibodeux
Now it's a crazy life, it's a scary world
He whispered "Don't cry little girl
Death finds us all one at a time"
And he pulled me close and stroked my hair
And I felt the cold hand of fear
Grab my throat and crawl on down my spine
And he traced my lips with the kiss of steel
He said "You know how sweet it feels
To know I will release you from your pain?"
And somethin' snapped inside me, flash of blue
I grabbed the knife from him and when I came to
Hell, I was standin' in the Louisiana rain
His blood was washin' off me like a cheap tattoo
I held my hands to the sky and knew
I'd beat the devil, son, at his own game
Dark haired angel touched my cheek
She said "I'm Airborne. Blessed be!
Tonight the fist of God bears your name.
Child don't heaven feel like ... Louisiana rain?"---Lyrics submitted by Chris Meyer.
