Indigo Girls - Ozilline Lyrics

{He did, he observed Saturday as the sabbath
What, what kind of faith does that make him?
Uhh, he didn't have one
Oh, okay
He didn't believe in any one thing
He would go out on the street and all the kids would play the
With a drum like thing, some, some kind of an instrument, yeah
And Mama played the organ, she had a organ and she played that
And she got a real big kick out of it, but didn't have the patience
[Incomprehensible]}

Oh oh Ozilline
The moon is almost full
And you don't need a torchlight
To see into these woods
Now sister bring the medicine
To keep you from decline
But it's the waxing and the waining
That's always on your mind

I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"
I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"

As soon as the corn's in
The deer will come to feed
And when the berry ripens
The bird will come to eat
You build by the river
It's pretty but you'll pay
'Cause the springtime brings the flood plain
And your cutback washes away

I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"
I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"

And I had to put the dog down
Before I hit the road
Yeah, I watched that sweet old life
Become a bag of bones
So when your body's broken
And your heart wants to give in
You hear that hoot owl callin'
Just like she was a friend

I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"
I said, "Oh Ozilline
I feel for you"

I said, "Ozilline, she don't let you cry"
If you ask her where it hurts
I said, "Ozilline, she don't let you cry"
If you ask her where it hurts
She said,"What a blessed sky"
