Richmond Woman Lyrics

by Andrew Bird

Give her a red lipstick and a bright pair of shoes
A new bob haircut and a shot of good booze
her down-sweet daddy, I'm blowing your horn
oh if you come too late
no no, your mama' will be gone

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e74691-andrew_bird~richmond_woman_lyrics.html ]
come along young man, everything's sitting right here
my husband's gone away till next Saturday night
her down-sweet daddy, I'm blowing your horn
oh if you come too late
no no, your mama' will be gone

I'm round-a-go, red shoes on my feet
got my mind set right for ten years at sea
her down-sweet daddy, I'm blowing your horn
if you come too late
no no, your mama' will be gone

yeah cause the red rooster says "cock-a-doodle do do"
the wishing woman says "and a doodle do"
her down-sweet daddy, I'm blowing your horn
if you come too late
no no, your mama' will be gone
one more time

red rooster says "cock-a-doodle do do"
the wishing woman says "and a doodle do"
her down-sweet daddy, I'm blowing your horn
if you come too late
no no, your mama' will be gone

if you come too late
your mama' will be gone
