Magnolia Flowers
The quiet fading out of life
In a corner full of ugliness.
I went lookin’ for magnolia flowers
But I didn’t find ’em.
I went lookin’ for magnolia flowers in the dusk
And there was only this corner
Full of ugliness.
’Scuse me,
I didn’t mean to stump ma toe on you, lady,
There ought to be magaolias
Somewhere in this dusk.
’Scuse me,
I didn’t mean to stump ma toe on you.
