Andrew Skates - Lisa Sawyer Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]
She was born in New Orleans
New Orleans, Louisiana
Branded with the name Lisa Sawyer
Circa 1963

[Verse 2]
Grandmother was Indian, Indian
Her mother's name was Eartha, swift as the wind
Fierce as fire
Her father's name was Victor
Worked two jobs to provide for his flock

[Verse 3]
She was the youngest of seven, seven
She grew up on Louisa Street
Chaos around, but inside cozy
Small, but a mansion in her eyes
Eyes, eyes, mansion
[Verse 4]
Never had much money, money
But was filthy rich
With the wealth you couldn't get from a dark casino
Or a lottery ticket
They had love, love, love
Rich in love

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
She had the complexion of
The complexion of a sweet praline
Hair long as the sea, heart warm like the Louisiana sun
Voice like a symphony
Of the most beautiful instruments, ooh
Beautiful

[Verse 6]
At the age of sixteen, sixteen
She found Christ at an altar
All along He was calling her name
The Gospel spoken from an old wrinkly man
Man, man
Gospel
[Outro]
She was born in New Orleans
She was born in New Orleans
She was born in New Orleans
New Orleans
