Adia Victoria - Magnolia Blues lyrics
Artist: Adia Victoria
album: A Southern Gothic
I followed you into the blue
And North into the cold
You led me off my land
You led me far from home
I tried to be the kinda girl
Who never needed shit
I gave you all my light
And I got nothing to show for it
I'm going back South
Down to Carolina
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia
I'm gonna let that dirt
Do its work
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia, a magnolia
Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
♪
I may leave and buy a move
I need my feet alone
Didn't have a dime to ride the blinds
And lead me back to home
I asked the conductor, "Sir, won't you let me ride?"
He said, "Baby girl, this ain't my world, train ain't nothing of mine"
I'm going back South
Down to Carolina
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia
I'm gonna let that dirt
Do its work
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia, a magnolia
Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
♪
Ooh, it's something in the air tonight
Something in the air tonight
Ooh, it's something in the air tonight
Something in the air tonight
Ooh, it's something in the air tonight
Something in the air tonight
I'm going back South
Down to Carolina
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia
I'm gonna let that dirt
Do its work
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia, a magnolia
Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
And North into the cold
You led me off my land
You led me far from home
I tried to be the kinda girl
Who never needed shit
I gave you all my light
And I got nothing to show for it
I'm going back South
Down to Carolina
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia
I'm gonna let that dirt
Do its work
I'm gonna plant myself
Under a magnolia, a magnolia
Magnolia, a magnolia, a magnolia
