Sister Heroine

It's gonna be a dark cold December With shaking lilies in the yard. & your sweet face I will remember How I'm gonna miss your stubborn heart. So forgive me for my weakness I guess my faith is a little stoned. The angels cried on a Friday The day that God walked you home. So goodbye Sister heroine I'll remember everything, I love you. Goodbye white trash beauty Queen Your crooked heart & your beat up dreams, I love you... It hurts to laugh here without you A piece inside of us is gone. Mama tries to smile too Ain't never seen that woman try so hard. No more working Alvarado No more liars, tramps or thieves. Your skin & bones don't cast no shadow on an empty bed in Motel Six So goodbye Sister heroine I'll remember everything, I love you. Goodbye white trash beauty Queen Your crooked heart & your beat up dreams, I love you... We all threw roses at your feet While you burned our crosses in the street So if you're looking down on me, I love you.
