POISON APPLE LADY As sung by Andy Roberts on "Urban Cowboy" This is a song about a night at a house by a river. I was taken there by Danny and Sandy and Karen who I'd only just met. Nobody lived there then; maybe it's empty still. But I can't forget the hummin' of the crickets and I probably never will. We parked the car that I thought was too shot to make it, And we all walked down to the house by a river that somebody just forgot. I only had on my sandals and my feet were wet with dew, But I stuck by your side like a mussel to a stone 'cause I wanted to be with you. Karen, lady dark eyes, I dig you. Poison apple lady, I dig you. How've you been, child? See you soon. Stumblin' 'cross the rotten floors in the dark was quite a game. "I think that's mine—no, I'm sorry, it's yours; in the dark they're all the same." I wanted you so badly, and feelin' somethin' wrong, I planned with Danny to see you... and began to write this song." It was much later on that you dared to tell me about him, So I didn't know a thing about your old man as we waited for the sun. I really had a good time, and everyone else did too, But you know in your heart that the house by a river means more to me and you. Karen, lady dark eyes, I dig you. Poison apple lady, I want you. How've you been, child? See you soon. How've you been, child? See you soon. |
