Catherine Britt - Sally Bones lyrics

I'm just an orphan girl From Alice Springs My name is Sally Bones When I was 13 I ran away From a hell that I called home I met him by a garbage bin Stoking the fire I needed warmth from the cold You were so much older than me But I didn't care Cause I knew you loved me so On my 15th birthday You gave me a ring From the two-dollar machine We got married And moved to the creek It wasn't all that it seemed I should be 16 now But I'm as light as a feather I should be 16 now Yeah I'll haunt you forever You won't eat, you won't think, yeah I'll drive you insane I'll make sure that you won't, ever sleep again You buried my fragile bones Underneath the bridge You thought no one would ever know Thought you could get away With blood on your hands Cause no one cares about Sally Bones I should be 18 now But I'm as light as a feather I should be 18 now Yeah I'll haunt you forever You won't eat, you won't think, yeah I'll drive you insane I'll make sure that you won't, ever sleep again I'm just an orphan girl From Alice Springs My name is Sally Bones
