We need to talk about Addie Mae
I seen her walking out the other day
And I been watching that girl wilt away
Bruised back blisterin'
There ain't no end to her sufferin'
And any good she had has gone to grayIt's a howlin' shame
A howlin' shameOh that girl is a ghost
Burnin' in a hell that don't nobody know
White flag twistin' in the wind
And at her best she is witherin'
And she all set for death she can't be saved
It's a howlin' shame
A howlin' shameNobody could love her
Nobody could care
'Cause she ran them all off
With her get back stare
Stay away, away, away
Away, awayA murder of crows
They followed her home
And they didn't leave much
Just a bed of bones
Get away, away
Away, away, away
I'm a howlin' shame
A howlin' shame
I'm a howlin' shame
A howlin' shame
Howlin' shame
Howlin' shame
Howlin' shame
Howlin' shame
