Stanley Brothers - Scarlet Purple Robe lyrics

Went to where the people were on a saturday night

seems like it always seems

where i go i want to leave

i thought we were doing fine with our lives

there are people who will tell you

there is always something better

if you don't know or care you'll be alright

i heard it's modern to be stupid

you don't need to talk to look good

i surprised myself as my mouth started speaking

there is nothing left of my nerves

as i lean over to ask her

pardon the intrusion

could we leave before it gets bad

i might smash up all these windows

and set fire to the curtains

until it goes on and eats it with its blue and red orange

until the fire burns and eats it with its blue and red orange

if you don't know or care you'll be alright

i heard it's modern to be stupid

you don't need a thought to look good

pardon the intrusion

could we leave before it gets bad

i might smash up all the windows

and set fire to the curtains

went to where the people were on a saturday night

seems like it always seems

where i go i want to leave

i surprised myself as my mouth started speaking

there is nothing left of my nerves

as i lean over to ask her

pardon the intrusion

could we leave before it gets bad

i might smash up all the windows

and set fire to the curtains

until it goes on and eats it with its blue and red orange

until the fire burns and eats it with its blue and red orange
