Whats  the matter here?
You'll  never repair
The  lady's cursed with insight
You’ll  never fix her
with  a cold stare
She's  all broken inside
She  made a good go
like  a weeping willow
Her  limbs clung to the ground
She  closed the window
and  made a pillow
And  lay her head down
And  as her babies slept she  took a long deep breath
Now  they're zipping her up  in a  bag
Can  you hear her blacks crackle  and drag?
And  the Cadillac's waiting  to take  her away
Can  you hear her blacks crackle  and drag?
Another  head cold
another  spirit old
Mmmm,  February
Her  hair was dirty
and  she was 30
in  1963
And  While her babies slept  she took a long deep  breath
And  they're zipping her up  in a  bag
Can  you hear her blacks crackle  and  drag?
And  the Cadillac's waiting  to take  her away
Can  you hear her blacks crackle  and drag?
 And drag  and drag
 And drag  and drag  and drag
 x2
 Mmmmmm
She  made a good go
for  a weeping willow
She  stuffed some rags on the floor
She  closed the window
She  made a pillow
on  the oven door
And  took a long deep breath
While  her baby slept
 Now they're zipping  her up  in a  bag
 Can you hear  her blacks crackle  and drag?
 And the Cadillac's  waiting  to take  her away
 Can you hear  her blacks crackle  and drag?
 Now they're zipping  her up  in a  bag
 Can you hear  her blacks crackle  and drag?
 And the Cadillac's  waiting  to take her away
 Can you hear  her blacks crackle  and drag?
 Can you hear  her blacks crackle  and drag?
