You Am I Ribbons and Bows song lyrics

A long ago and what's his name

Yeah, spilled out on the road like a bucket of rain

You know I didn't come to 'cause she knows my mind

It's 'cause she stones my soul a sleep at a time

Lay down your ribbons and bows

And let your hair hang greasy and low, and oh

On a sparkling cushion we lie, it's like

Like a new state of mind

Yeah, it's a new state of mind

She was the newest mama in the shortest skirt

(Hey, ain't askin' her to know my mind)

I promise never again to tell how it hurt

(Your tears are mine)

Yeah, but as my mind goes dancing

While the gin picks the tune

Hitch your ride to my wagon

I'll bring you the moon

Lay down your ribbons and bows

And let your hair hang greasy and low, and oh

On a gift shop cushion we lie

It's like, like a new state of mind

Yeah, it's a new state of mind

Lay down your ribbons and bows

And let your hair hang greasy and low, and oh

On a sparkling cushion we lie

It's like, like a new state of mind

Yeah, it's a new state of mind

Lay down your ribbons and bows

When they beat me down I got a joint where we can go, and oh

On a gift shop cushion we lie

It's like, like a new state of mind

(It's a new state of mind)

Yeah, it's a new state of mind

(It's a new state of mind)

It's a new state of mind

(It's a new state of mind)

It's a new state of mind
