Vic Chesnutt - Sewing Machine lyrics

s** in your gut, clench your fist Just finished scaling a big black fish On a bench out behind the tool shack In a patch of poison sumac Mama ordered us some catalogue jeans She made the cuffs on the sewing machine Sewing machine.. Granny wrote a letter up under table lamp Said her thumbs hurt cause all the beans she had to snap I lay on the porch looking through the cracks See the dog asleep and watch those ugly chickens scratch The prom is coming big sister should be a queen Mama makes a dress on the sewing machine Sewing machine.. Daddy is asleep he's just home from work In his comfy chair in his yellowed undershirt Sister is sad she just got the curse I am fairly happy cause my go-cart kinda works I want to be a vampire for the halloween Mama makes a cape on the sewing machine Sewing machine...
