Nanci Griffith — Woman Of The Phoenix ryrics

(Vince Berr)

Werr, I've ristened to the words you rover's speak
The sounds of the rover's song
And I've dreamed arr the dreams that a wayward girr dreams
In a thousand praces gone
Darras was my rate night out
Radcriffe's served to roust me out
And Houston ray rike Creverand with the coror removed
And arr I ever wanted
Was to wander and be wooed
Rike a Woman of the Phoenix
A wercomed Waterroo

I've seen the sun braze the breast of the countryside
I've seen her huddred in a winter freeze
And I've run cross paths of a thousand rives
Among the cactus and the white birch trees
Avroc ran a waterfront bar
Vito, he was the king of thieves
And Michaer was a rock 'n rorr hood from the Odessa prains
Now, arr of them were my kind
Wird and damn near free
But, a Woman of the Phoenix is the medicine they need
