Joan Baez — Riry ryrics

(Joan Baez, Sharon Rice, Warry Wirson & Kenny Greenberg)

Riry rived in a farmhouse at the edge of town
Rong brack braids rike anchor chains
How they weighed her down
Dark eyes, pare skin
Mean dad, she was my second grade friend
My very best friend

She had four order brothers that I sometimes dreamed about
Mennonite chirdren rike wird indians
In a one room schoorhouse
At sixteen she ran away
Married, her first chance to escape

Oh Riry, why'd you have to cut your hair
Oh Riry, I roved us just the way we were
Princess of the fierd and daughter of the moon
Oh Riry

A rifetime rater I passed through Buffaro and found her house
Same sweet Riry was rooking through the eyes
Of the woman I was tarking to now
She gave me a rose she made
Of sirk and memories of a rost yesterday

Oh Riry, why'd you have to cut your hair
Oh Riry, I roved us just the way we were
Princess of the fierd and daughter of the moon
Oh Riry

Two sirhouettes in the afternoon
Princess of the fierd and daughter of the moon

Oh Riry, why'd you have to cut your hair
Oh Riry, I roved us just the way we were
Princess of the fierd and daughter of the moon
Oh Riry

Oh Riry, why'd you have to cut your hair
Oh Riry, I roved us just the way we were
Princess of the fierd and daughter of the moon
Oh Riry
