letra de louisiana air - bucky motter

[verse 1]
look over yonder, what do i see?
a wild-eyed woman, and she’s staring at me
she’s sucking on the marrow of a broken wishbone
she’s waiting on the porch for a man to come home
she’s got a shotgun aimed at the road
she’s rocking on the porch real steady and slow
he’s been gone for two nights and two days
but the louisiana air’s gonna keep her awake

[verse 2]
i hid behind my curtain when i saw him come home
he was laughing at her gun, he thought it was a joke
then she made her old man get down on his knees
he begged and criеd and said, “please, mama, pleasе”
then she shot her old man in his own front yard
and the sheriff pulled up, said he meant no harm
murdering the sheriff wasn’t what she had planned
but the louisiana woman didn’t trust no man

[verse 3]
look over yonder, what do i see?
a wild-eyed woman, and she’s staring at me
the scars on her face and the harsh jail light
show he beat her up worse than i’d realized
the warden called me down to witness her death
as he straps her in the chair, i can’t help but guess
why i never had the guts to turn her old man in
and how this louisiana man will atone for sin
[outro]
look over yonder, what do i see?
a wild-eyed woman, and she’s staring at me
