Isis

Biograph专辑

  • I married
    Isis on the fifth day of
    MayBut I could not hold on to her very long
    So I cut off my hair and
    I rode straight away
    For the wild unknown country where
    I could not go wrong
    I came to a high place of darkness and light
    Dividing line ran through the center of town
    I hitched up my pony to a post on the right
    Went into a laundry to wash my clothes down
    A man in the corner approached me for a match
    I knew right away he was not ordinary
    He said, "Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?"
    I said, "I got no money", he said, "That ain't necessary"
    We set out that night for the cold in the
    NorthI gave him my blanket and he gave me his word
    I said, "Where are we goin'?", he said "We'd be back by the fourth"
    I said, "That's the best news that I've ever heard"
    I was thinkin' about turquoise,
    I was thinkin' about gold
    I was thinkin' about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace
    As we rode through the canyons, through the devilish cold
    I was thinkin' about
    Isis, how she thought
    I was so reckless
    How she told me that one day we would meet up again
    And things would be different the next time we wed
    If I only could hang on and just be her friend
    I still can't remember all the best things she said
    We came to the pyramids, all embedded in ice
    He said, "There's a body I'm tryin' to findIf I carry it out it'll bring a good price"'
    Twas then that
    I knew what he had on his mind
    The wind it was howlin' and the snow was outrageous
    We chopped through the night and we chopped through the dawn
    When he died
    I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious
    But I made up my mind that
    I had to go on
    I broke into the tomb but the casket was empty
    There was no jewels, no nothin',
    I felt I'd been had
    When I saw that my partner was just bein' friendly
    When I took up his offer
    I musta been mad
    I picked up his body and
    I dragged him inside
    Threw him down in the hole and
    I put back the cover
    I said a quick prayer and
    I felt satisfied
    Then I rode back to find
    Isis just to tell her
    I love her
    She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise
    Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed
    I came in from the
    East with the sun in my eyes
    I cursed her one time then
    I rode on ahead
    She said, "Where ya been?",
    I said, "No place special"
    She said, "You look different",
    I said, "Well, I guess"
    She said, "You been gone",
    I said,"That's only natural"
    She said, "You gonna stay",
    I said, "If you want me to, yes"
    Isis, oh,
    Isis, you mystical child
    What drives me to you is what drives me insane
    I still can remember the way that you smiled
    On the fifth day of
    May in the drizzlin' rain
