Bonnie Prince Billy

Bonnie Prince Billy - Ease Down The Road lyrics

i took her on a simple trip

to see her husbands family

and on the way upon her hip

was laid my head down gently

all due respect was meant and all

the winds were in agreement

that this was answering the call

of awkward and true feeling

a fireman her husband was

and so to give him duty

i duly tried to light a fire

upon his rightful booty

but beauty was my treasure then

as through the hills i drove her

and taught her that another man

could have made love to her

strange is good if it is kept

a secret with the lovers

who love their mates

and love themselves

and need the love of others

through the window i could see

the fields and clouds all passing

as in the passenger position

eleanor was thrashing

i stopped the car we got a beer

and then eased down the road

a little guilt, and some guilt spilt

and added to our load
