lonesome river band - mayhayley's house lyrics
[verse 1]
down in the shade of the knotty pine
lives an old woman with a marble eye
done as a haint, thin [?]
and worn as bible pages
she was born with a veil, a seer’s sign
a preacher’s tongue and a lawyer’s mind
she’ll tell your fortune for a buck and a dime
the oracle of ages
[chorus]
hey, let’s go down
let’s go down to mayhayley’s house
they say she’s crazy
hey, whatcha wanna know now?
ask mayhayley and you’ll find out
they say she’s crazy
[verse 2]
john wallace was a wealthy man
cattle, people, liquor, land
but he caught the wind of a thеivin’ hand
and he k!lled the man who wrongеd him
though when he heard the sheriff was askin’ around
he went out to mayhayley’s house
askin’ if he’d be found out
she said that death is comin’
[verse 3]
well, the sheriff knew of mayhayley too
and when he’d run near out of clues
he went to see her on a full moon
and said, “i need to find a body.”
she took hairs from a possum’s leg
spat ’em into the fire and read
the flames for a while then hung her head
and said, “ashes on the water.”
[chorus]
hey, let’s go down
let’s go down to mayhayley’s house
they say she’s crazy
hey, whatcha wanna know now?
ask mayhayley and you’ll find out
they say she’s crazy
[verse 4]
well, the sheriff found the ash and bone
on a creek bed by the wallace home
they jailed him, tried him, and sent him on
his way by way of lightnin’
mayhayley saw her fortune grow
people lined up and down the road
to find out things they didn’t know
and to keep the hid from hidin’
[chorus]
hey, let’s go down
let’s go down to mayhayley’s house
they say she’s crazy
hey, whatcha wanna know now?
ask mayhayley and you’ll find out
they say she’s crazy
