Biloxi Parish

I’ve been fondling with your heart strings,
And that’s good enough for me,
And if I break over your house,
Then I know I must been working,
Try it on for size my darling,
See what man you can make of me,
I will eventually haunt you,
And you’ll eventually will be my queen,

And I’ll be with you through
The dark so that you do not,
Go through the dark alone,
On your own

I’ve been down at Biloxi Parish,
And that’s good enough for me,
I found that nothing truly matters,
That you cannot find for free,
I love you more than can I tell you,
When you pass through from this world,
I hope you ask to take me with you
So I don’t have to wait for long

But until then I’ll be with you through the dark,
And until then I’ll be with you through the dark

Who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
Who else can take all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen a hanging around
Seen a hanging around

I aint seen my home in half a year
I miss my mother and my friends
Please tell Rita
That I’ve been praying
For all that trouble to finally end
But When this whole thing is over
And we land in Asbury’s arms
And the bands all quiets down
And it’s just you and me in the dark
I won’t say nothing
Cuz that’s how I know your heart
I won’t say nothing
Cuz that’s how I know your heart.

Who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
Who else can take all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen a hanging around
Seen a hanging around

Who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
Who else can say all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen a hanging around
Seen a hanging around
