Adrianne Lenker - Miss Misty lyrics

Artist: Adrianne Lenker

album: a-sides


Oh Miss Misty was a stoned skinned gal
Well she didn't stick around in one town for too long
"Cause too long is too long," she said
And she said,"I'll be gone by morning
Don't come looking after me.
Got to get back to that place I've never been
Never been before."
T-Bone City, up the 215
She traded in her daddy's old Packard super 8 sedan
For a vincent black shadow machine
Yeah she opened him up, some fifty horses hot
Foaming at their mouths in a dust cloud headed south on down the devil's backbone
Down his crooked legs
"Fly away old glory" ringing in her head
Sayin', I'll be gone by morning
Don't come looking after me
Got to get back to that place I've never been
Never been before
The big magnolia down by Buellers pond
In a hand me down sun dress and roper boots
I could go on and on
With my bolt action .22, I'd knock them blossoms down
Misty'd catch them in her skirt before they hit the ground
Sayin' I'll be gone by morning
Don't come looking after me
Got to get back to that place i've never been
Never been before
