Devilry & the Blues in Little Dixie

from Radio Free Conspiracy Theory by Mississippi Bones

/

lyrics

Well, witchy voodoo woman
You strummed gold out of my heart strings
But now you're making them sing the blues.
I should have known better
But you know it ain't so easy with Little Dixie playing with my senses. Well, she suckered me; cajoled.
With her sorcery; so cold.
And southern fried devilry behind bright eyes.
And if Aunt Mable was able I bet she'd say
That flaming skull was a dead giveaway.
I know the heart wants what it wants but she sold her soul to the lesser gods in the swamp.
I should have known better.
I should have had more sense than this. I should have known, should have known, should have known, should have known.
That’s the last time I go snooping around in Mr. Whinery’s sandbox.
It's all ghouls and ghosts, horror shows and hard knocks.
Now let me educate you on devilry and the Blues in Little Dixie.
Her black magic weaving has got my heart a beating
But them undead fish monsters warrant some re-thinking I’d say.
Is it too much to ask for a little subtlety?
Next time I’ll listen to that cat, and you best believe that.
I know the heart wants what it wants but she sold her soul to the lesser gods in the swamp.
I should have known better
But, I was blindsided by a pan of homemade mac and cheese.
Heh, what can I say? A man’s got needs.
Well you can lie to your mom and I’ll lie to mine
But let’s not lie to each other, that’s just cold.
The way you use and abuse me is so unkind.
So unkind.
I’m just gonna chalk this one up to another lesson learned the hard way, And I do believe it’s time to hop on the first road out of little Dixie.
You know what I’m saying?
