Miss Sally's Party: Introduction
de William Grant Still
In the shadows of the night I saw her angel face
An undefined form emerged in the haze
I've never seen her kind around
She is the queen of the underground
Oh my little swamp girl, you're beautiful
We walked by the light of the fireflies
The roughness of her skin, the green of her eyes
I was a taker, she was a giver
Making sweet love beside the river
Oh my little swamp girl, you're outta sight
It was 07:15, it was the time it had always been
The whistle blew loud she felt the pain within
While I was dealing with my hesitation
I left her waiting at the train station
Oh little swamp girl
Even a righteous man makes mistakes like everybody else
What could be expected of a fool like myself?
And I'm still thinking now and then
About the bird I let escape from my hand
Oh little swamp girl, where did you go?
Oh little swamp girl, where did you go?
Oh little swamp girl, I miss you so
