The Wound That Never Heals
Lyricist:Michael Pratt
Long about an hour before sunrise She drags his body down To the edge of the swollen river Wrapped in a red velvet curtain
Stolen from the movie theater Where she works Quiet as a whisper under the stanchions of a Washed out bridge she cuts him loose
And watches as the flood waters spin him Around once then carry him away Then she removes the golden ring Upon her finger she throws it in
And I wonder baby why don't you cry? Baby why don't you? Baby why don't you cry?
And I wonder baby why don't you cry? Baby why don't you? Baby why don't you cry? Aah haa yea yea
Three days later in a bar in Southern Mississippi She meets a man by the name of Charles Lee (Charles Lee) She introduces herself to him as 'Lee Charles' What a coincidence he says and a week later They get married he wakes up one night six months Down the line to find her staring at him in the oddest way When he says 'honey, what's wrong?' She says 'Oh nothing dear except that Tears are a stupid trick of God' And by the time they find his body Six weeks later well hell She's a thousand miles away
And I wonder baby why don't you cry? Baby why don't you Baby why don't you cry?
I wonder baby why don't you cry? Baby why don't you Baby why don't you cry? Ha haa yea yea ha haa

She runs from Devils she runs from Angels She runs from the ghost of her father And five different uncles blinded by their Memories, seared by their pain She'd like to kill 'em all then kill 'em all again
She don't think much about what she's done Or the funny feelings that she feels no, she don't To her it's just a condition she picked up as a child A little thing she calls, the wound that never heals, She calls it, the wound that never heals
And I wonder baby why don't you cry? Baby why don't you Baby why don't you cry?
