"Sister Heroine" lyrics - BETH HART

It's gonna be a dark cold December
With shaking lilies in the yard.
And your sweet face I will remember
How I'm gonna miss your stubborn heart.
So forgive me for my weakness
I guess my faith is a little stoned.
The angels cried on a Friday
The day that God walked you home.

So goodbye Sister heroine
I'll remember everything, I love you...
Goodbye white trash beauty Queen
Your crooked heart and your beat up
Dreams, I love you...

It hurts to laugh here without you
A piece inside of us is gone.
Mama tries to smile too
Ain't never seen that woman try so hard.
No more working Alvarado
No more liars, tramps or thieves.
Your skin and bones don't cast no shadow
On an empty bed in Motel Six

So goodbye Sister heroine
I'll remember everything, I love you...
Goodbye white trash beauty Queen
Your crooked heart and your beat up
Dreams, I love you...

We all threw roses at your feet
While you burned our crosses in the street
So if you're looking down on me,
I love you...
