What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The saddest girl in the whole wide world
2
I met her on the Quarter
3
With no regards for vagrancy, no respect for civil order
4
How young are you, I asked her
5
How old are you, young lady?
6
I'm much older than you think, 'cause I have seven babies
7
Where are those who keep these kids
8
While you're out on the party?
9
I leave them where they are safe
10
At the church of 12th and Harding
11
The people there they know me well
12
They ask me very few questions
13
And if a child should pass before they wake, they'll pray them into heaven
14
No love and no lover
15
A murder of crows did sing
16
We soon will discover
17
The coffin will wear our brass ring
18
So where's the father of these kids?
19
Does he, does he help you ever?
20
I have no idea where he is
21
He don't show his face, he knows better
22
Can I help you go tonight?
23
It would be my pleasure
24
And make sure that you arrive all right
25
Now we could leave together
26
She said, no, I don't need your company
27
And I don't want your pity
28
You'd be wise just to go away
29
And leave me here where I'm sitting
30
Is there nothing I can do for you?
31
Now it's time to scatter
32
Why do you think there's something wrong with me
33
There's nothing really the matter?
34
No love and no lover
35
A murder of crows did sing
36
We soon will discover
37
A coffin will wear our brass ring
38
I find myself where life could go
39
I find myself each morning
40
All the duties of this world
41
Fell on my shoulders without warning
42
I make no plans, nor do I care
43
For the future called tomorrow
44
This world I've seen here's never fair
45
So just leave me here with my sorrows
46
No love and no lover
47
A murder of crows did sing
48
We soon will discover
49
The coffin will wear our brass ring
50
No love and no lover
51
A murder of crows did sing
52
We soon will discover
53
A coffin will wear our brass ring
54
Wear our brass ring
