One Good Thing - Anaïs Mitchell

Turn that TV off now baby

I’m so low I don’t even sing

Tell me something bout my country

Tell me one good thing

Cash and Elvis, Cain and Abel

Down in Memphis trading hands

Big girls dancing on the tables

Dancing for the band

Put that paper down now baby

I’m so low I don’t even sing

Tell me something bout my country

Tell me one good thing

King and Malcolm, lamb and lion

Setting Alabama free

Thirty thousand angels flying

From Montgomery

Switch that station off now baby

I’m so low I don’t even sing

Tell me something bout my country

Tell me one good thing

Tell me one good thing
