I See Hawks In L.A. - Golden Girl lyrics

I feel in love with a golden girl A wild, young beauty with golden curls But a streak in our hearts ran a d**hly black I took her to Whitewater But she won't be coming back When I first met her she was just 17 Singing in the choir of the Holy Nazarene As we bowed our heads in prayer she gave me a wink I knew our book was written in the devil's ink My own wife had left me on Christmas Eve Standing by the tree, I begged her not to leave But that golden child gave me a start A flower bloomed inside my cold, cold heart Can a flower bloom inside a cold, cold heart? Then she asked me to buy her a bottle of wine So her and her friends could have a real good time Beneath those fluorescent lights of Red's Liquor Store She giggled and whistled and made me love her more She showed me the pleasures of the loose and the wild She snuck into my bedroom most every night She found me a pistol and loaded it too She wanted money what else could I do CHORUS I picked up my brother and she rode in the back She waited in the car in case we were attacked 20 minutes later at the Navaho Bar We took $1500 dollars from the Chief's jar But he was standing in the shadows as we headed for the door He lowered his rifle and settled the score My brother collapsed when the round hit his chest I carried him to the car and I laid him down to rest Oh brother farewell, for he loved you the best SOLO And I cried, I cried, and I cried, I cried, I cried I hit the gas and she giggled a bit Said looks like now it's just a two way split Raised up my pistol told her to get quiet She didn't listen, I felt myself fire it Then things were silent except for one sound Of a cold soul leaving the golden ground I took her still body out of the Caprice Carried her off into the tall pine trees I set her sit in a chair of spoiled stones No cushion for her flesh, no frame for her bones And I asked God to put us both on trial Sat at her feet and I waited a while Then the sky opened up and the rain did fall And I buried her body by the waterfall I feel in love with a golden girl A wild, young beauty with golden curls But a streak in our hearts ran a d**hly black I took her to Whitewater But we won't be coming back I took her to Whitewater But no one's coming back
