Thimble Island - Rasputina

I’m going down to Thimble Island

To find my true love there

I’m sure that I can find one

Long of limb with time to spare

On Thimble Island

I’m on my own down the river

I’ll take my ivory needlecase

I’ll weave a blanket for when I shiver

I’ll stitch a bonnet to shield my face

On Thimble Island

You go there alone

To find someone for to call them your own

I’ve not heard of girls returning

It is a murky, mystery place

I may not have had much booklearnin'

But I’ve got charms to win the race

On Thimble Island

You go there alone

To find someone for to call them your own

All the girls are rowing there

Gently down the stream

In a dream I saw you there

On Thimble Island

I’m going down to Thimble Island

To find my true love there

I’m sure that I can find one

Long of limb with time to spare

On Thimble Island
