Lyrics:
You were just a girl
Barely seventeen
They locked your spirit up
They threw away the key
It was a dusty high
You stumbled through
To the other side
Of that myth they made of you
And the colored lights
Those colored lights
Strung across the porch
On your granddaddy's fishing line
And he's crossed over
Over to the other side
But those colored lights they shine
Your sweet mama never wanted any trouble
She gave you books and pretty things
Cursed you with a quick tongue and her good looks
Oh well, mama she expected greater things
You were the first one to go bad
Just like some awful dream that no one had
Out on the riverbank
You stood alone
Green water cooled
Your July bones
Pull them dirty secrets
Down from your hair
Let the Finley River roll
And let them disappear
You were just a girl
Barely seventeen
They locked your spirit up
They threw away the key
It was a dusty high
You stumbled through
To the other side
Of that myth they made of you
And the colored lights
Those colored lights
Strung across the porch
On your granddaddy's fishing line
And he's crossed over
Over to the other side
But those colored lights they shine
Your sweet mama never wanted any trouble
She gave you books and pretty things
Cursed you with a quick tongue and her good looks
Oh well, mama she expected greater things
You were the first one to go bad
Just like some awful dream that no one had
Out on the riverbank
You stood alone
Green water cooled
Your July bones
Pull them dirty secrets
Down from your hair
Let the Finley River roll
And let them disappear
