New Imperial Grand Blues

Florins hanging under the willow
 Daddy sang in/Daddy's hanging from those beams
 Keeping perfect time with the creaking
 That girl's only got 18 wheels
 Spent enough time with the living
 To know the living don't spend nothing on me
 So leave your wine and soul in a mansion
 Oh, meet me in the big red sea
 
 Sister there's no man you could save
 Oh, piece no mush American taint
 Bible still can teach you about suffering
 Oh, but suffering doesn't know god's name
 Spent enough time with the living
 To know the living don't spend nothing on me, so
 Tell your uncles where to go
 Oh, meet me in the big red sea
 ♪
 Holding your head under the water
 ♪
 Doesn't make you a white whale
 ♪
 Holding your head higher and right
 Doesn't make you a man, Jane
 Spent enough time with the living
 To know the living don't spend nothing on me, so
 Siccin' purple shales on the altar
 Meet me in the big red sea
 You can't steal this in remembrance of me
 Oh, meet me in the big red sea
