Pretty Lavinia

Pretty Lavinia
 Of the six and five mile inns
 Works the lost parlours in a town of missing men
 Carolina swamp juice
 By the finger
 As she lingers
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 What goes in Lavinia's drum?
 One part kisses, three part rum
 Northern girl with a southern tongue
 Pretty Lavinia
 Another body was combed from the Ashley bank
 Tied with cattails and stones until it sank
 But Lavinia
 Breezing corners
 Past the mourners
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Gossip and needles
 Where the chapel ladies meet
 Pray for Lavinia a-sauntering down the street
 Where's Anne Coley?
 What's delayed her?
 Who can say sir?
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 What goes in Lavinia's drum?
 One part kisses, three part rum
 Northern girl with a southern tongue
 Pretty Lavinia
 What goes in Lavinia's drum?
 One part kisses, three part rum
 Northern girl with a southern tongue
 Pretty Lavinia
 Mr. Pearl Akin
 Found in the penny fish carts
 Split wide open with salt upon his parts
 There's his top hat
 There's his waistcoat
 Where's the bank note?
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Samuel McGinty
 Entered for a roof and bed
 And a shot red whisky, was poured a black triple instead
 Stumbled room six
 There and about
 Never checked out
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 What goes in Lavinia's drum?
 One part kisses, three part rum
 Northern girl with a southern tongue
 Pretty Lavinia
 What goes in Lavinia's drum?
 One part kisses, three part rum
 Northern girl with a southern tongue
 Pretty Lavinia
 Pretty Lavinia

 As she lingers
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Of the six and five mile inns
 Works the lost parlours in a town of missing men
 Carolina swamp juice
 By the finger
 As she lingers
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
 Pretty, pretty, pretty Lavinia
