Sweet Edie-D - Terry Callier

Rumplestilskin’s song is a chorus and half too long

I’m a country son, doing all I can

The big city nights got me hung up on the city lights

While I walk the streets, a guitar in my hands

Sweet Edie-D, you mean the world to me

And I love you, but I’m gonna leave you free

Sweet Edie-da, it don’t really matter now

While I’m singing Sweet Edie-D

I fell off Noah’s ark, I landed in the people’s park

Busted my G-string, I forgot what it was all about

I got hung up in a country tune

Blowin' through them changes like a country moon

Barely holding on, tryin' to let it all hang out

Sweet Edie-D, you mean the world to me

And I love you, but I’m gonna leave you free

Sweet Edie-da, it don’t really matter now

While I’m singing Sweet Edie-D

Hre come indepndent me

Living kind of independently

It ain’t the good life, when you’re spendin' time alone

Now love is only an idea, sugar

Baby when you’re not here

Then I’ve got nothin' that I can really call my own
