Woman King testo

Iron & Wine

Testo

Blackbird claw, raven wing

Under the red sunlight

Long clothesline, two shirtsleeves

Waving as we go by



Hundred years, hundred more

Someday we may see

A woman king

Wristwatch time

Slowin' as she goes to sleep



Black horsefly, lemonade

Jar on the red anthill

Garden worm, cigarette

Ash on the windowsill



Hundred years, hundred more

Someday we may see

A woman king

Sword in hand

Swing at some evil and bleed



Black hoof mare, broken leg

Eye on the shotgun shell

Age old dog, hornet nest

Built in the big church bell



Hundred years, hundred more

Someday we may see

A woman king

Bloodshot eye

Thumb down and starting to weep
