Fine Clothes to the Jew/Magnolia Flowers
MAGNOLIA FLOWERS
The quiet fading out of lifeIn a corner full of ugliness.
I went lookin' for magnolia flowersBut I didn't find 'em.I went lookin' for magnolia flowers in the duskAnd there was only this cornerFull of ugliness.
'Scuse me, I didn't mean to stump ma toe on you, lady.
There ought to be magnoliasSomewhere in this dusk.
'Scuse me, I didn't mean to stump ma toe on you.
