Generate meaning
1
The hoods are up on Pine Street,
2
rear ends lifted too
3
The great-grandsons of General Robert E. Lee
4
are making love with a little help from STP
5
Their women on the porches comparing alibis
6
Greasy eggs and bacon,
7
bumper stickers aimed to start a fight,
8
full gun racks, Confederate caps,
9
if you want some 'shine
10
well, you can always find some more,
11
but what I remember most is the colour of Suzy's door
12
And Suzy says she's up there
13
cutting carrots still
14
And Suzy says she's missing me
15
so I'm missing Oregon Hill
16
A river to the south
17
to wash away all sins
18
A college to the east of us
19
to learn where sin begins
20
A graveyard to the west of it all
21
which I may soon be lying in
22
'Cause to the north there is a prison
23
which I've come to call my home,
24
but some Monday morning no country song
25
will sing me home again
26
And Suzy says she's up there
27
cutting carrots still
28
And Suzy says she's missing me
29
so I'm missing Oregon Hill
30
Sunday morning, eight A.M.,
31
sirens fill the air
32
Sounds like someone made the river
33
Sounds like someone being born again
34
Me, I'm just lying here in Suzy's bed
35
Baptists celebrating with praises to the Lord,
36
rednecks doing it with gin
37
Me and Suzy, we're celebrating
38
the joy of sleeping in
39
because tomorrow I'll be home again
40
But Suzy says she'll wait there
41
cutting carrots by the window sill
42
And Suzy says, 'Always think of me
43
when you think of Oregon Hill'
