Ode to Billie June
O so woeful, o so sad
Kept us wondering all these years
Just what was in that bag
Splashed into the river
Sank like a ton of bricks
Imagination runnin' wild
Was it black-eyed bees or grits
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
No call for retribution
No mama's got to spill
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
When you go fornicating
On a blueberry hill
Trials and tribulations of ol' Hickory Hollies trick
Deserves investigating
Some gallant lady where the land
And that storyteller feller
It sounds strange but could be true
Now he freaked in ten years younger
I guess we just might never knew
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
No call for retribution
No mama's got to spill
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
When you go fornicating
On a blueberry hill
Like a ship without a sail, honey
Like having no fetch domino
Like a walk along the strand
Where you should never ever be alone
Like your system runnin' wild
When you're listening to defeat
Now girls you just ain't nowhere
Unless you're taking it
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
No call for retribution
No mama's got to spill
There ain't no institution
Like a body on the pill
When you go fornicating
On a blueberry hill
