Red Dirt Girl

[00:00:02] Red Dirt Girl - Emmylou Harris

[00:00:21] Me and my best friend Lillian

[00:00:24] And her blue tick hound dog gideon

[00:00:27] Sittin on the front porch cooling in the shade

[00:00:30] Singin every song the radio played

[00:00:33] Waitin for the alabama sun to go down

[00:00:35] Two red dirt girls in a red dirt town

[00:00:38] Me and Lillian

[00:00:44] Just across the line

[00:00:46] And a little southeast of meridian

[00:00:53] She loved her brother I remember back when

[00:00:56] He was fixin' up a '49 indian

[00:00:59] He told her 'little sister gonna ride the wind

[00:01:02] Up around the moon and back again

[00:01:05] He never got farther than vietnam

[00:01:08] I was standin there with her when the telegram come

[00:01:11] For Lillian

[00:01:17] Now he's lyin somewhere

[00:01:18] About a million miles from meridian

[00:01:25] She said there's not much hope for a red dirt girl

[00:01:29] Somewhere out there is the great big world

[00:01:31] Thats where I'm bound

[00:01:37] And the stars might fall on alabama

[00:01:40] One of these days I'm gonna swing

[00:01:43] My hammer down

[00:01:46] Away from this red dirt town

[00:01:52] I'm gonna make a joyful sound

[00:02:07] She grew up tall and she grew up thin

[00:02:10] Buried that old dog gideon

[00:02:13] By a crepe myrtle bush at the back of the yard

[00:02:16] Her daddy turned mean and her mama leaned hard

[00:02:19] Got in trouble with a boy from town

[00:02:22] Figured that she might as well settle down

[00:02:25] So she dug right in

[00:02:31] Across a red dirt line

[00:02:32] Just a little southeast of meridian

[00:02:40] Yeah she tried hard to love him but it never did take

[00:02:43] It was just another way for the heart to break

[00:02:46] So she learned to bend

[00:02:52] One thing they don't tell you about the blues

[00:02:54] When you got 'em

[00:02:55] You keep on falling cause there ain't no bottom

[00:02:57] There ain't no end

[00:03:03] At least not for Lillian

[00:03:10] Nobody knows when she started her skid

[00:03:12] She was only 27 and she had five kids

[00:03:15] Coulda been the whiskey

[00:03:17] Coulda been the pills

[00:03:18] Coulda been the dream she was trying to kill

[00:03:21] But there won't be a mention in the news of the world

[00:03:24] About the life and the death of a red dirt girl

[00:03:27] Named Lillian

[00:03:33] Who never got any further

[00:03:34] Across the line than meridian

[00:03:42] Now the stars still fall on alabama

[00:03:45] Tonight she finally laid

[00:03:47] That hammer down

[00:03:51] Without a sound

[00:03:57] In the red dirt ground
