Factory Girls Lyrics

(feat. Lucinda Williams)

 Build a bridge or maybe two

 Together held with footsteps she outgew

 But now she sits alone, everyone's long gone

 She dances in a photograph

 When it was good to joke and have a laugh

 But that was yesterday, if only today

 Now the walls are crawling faces that still breathe

 But before she nods her head what's left but sleep

 

 She hears a chorus of factory girls

 Singin' in the streets

 Drinkin' their coca-colas

 After washing your filthy sheets

 

 Chasin down the avaenue

 After a childhood that she never knew

 Choking on woodbine

 Cigarettes just kill the time

 Now the walls are crawling faces

 That still breathe

 But before she nods her head what's left but sleep

 

 She hears a chrous of factory girls

 Singin's aoin and all

 Empty are their pockets

 But their voices are filled with song

 

 Come day go day

 Wish in my hearty it was Sunday

 Drinking buttermilk all the week

 And whiskey on a Sunday

 

 Come day go day

 Wish in my hearty it was Sunday

 Drinking buttermilk all the week

 And whiskey on a Sunday

 

 Now the walls are crawling faces that still breathe

 But before she nods her head whats's left but sleep

 

 She hears a chorus of factory girls

 Singin' in the streets

 Drinkin' their coca-colas

 After washing your filthy sheets

 

 She hears a chrous of factory girls

 Singin's aoin and all

 Empty are their pockets

 But their voices are filled with song

 

 Stayed Richard and his court of Kings

 He stole my heart and many other things

 But me I took his crown

 Wish he was here to steal it now
