Oh Brother

I stumbled through the undergrowth and came upon a strange mystery

For right before my eyes is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen

She said, you've come a long way, Mr. tired, I know

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

From the moment I set eyes on her I just wanted her for my own

And when she started singing I just wanted to take her home

She said, how can you be such a fool to want my body, not what I know?

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

That's when I realised she was not like you or me

Her lips were cherry wine, she has wings like the gypsy queen

She said you'll always reap the things that you will sow

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

I could feel the mystic power that she had at her commands

My instinct told me, she'd never, ever do me any harm

And I knew she could see through me, right down to me bones

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

And then she disappeared the same way she had come

I walked into that park amongst the leaves and the sun

I struggled to my feet and started walking down the road

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

Well, I tried so hard to contact that gypsy queen

And no matter how far, wide, I looked, she was nowhere to be seen

I'll always remember what she said me, I know

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go

Oh, brother, you've got a long way to go
