Track #11 Little Pearl

Little pearl she is so sad

She sings the blues for every man, she has loved

See her tender shaking hands

Frightened dove, which cannot land

And it’s too bad about the pearl

She is so sad, a wasted girl, she is crying

Little pearl she cuts her heart, wide open

From inside she pulls her art, and it is bleeding

See her sacrificial lamb, yearlings die before her hand

And it’s too bad about the pearl

She is so sad, a wasted girl, she is vying

Little pearl the moon should have such charms like you do

In quiet alarm you tend a crop of deepest blues

Diamonds sapphires ash and bone

So strange to you it doesn’t show how you shine

It doesn’t show how you shine, how you shine

Little pearl she is alone

Pacing ‘round her empty home, and she is sleepless

See her by the window stand, solitary wave of hand

And it’s too bad about the pearl

She is so sad a wasted girl

But she is trying, oh she’s is trying, yeah she’s trying
