Carrboro Woman |
Carrboro woman, won’t you come with me |
There’s some place I want to go |
And I don’t want to go alone |
But what I want ain’t what I need |
And something else you ought to know |
That if you come, you’re on your own |
I’m no good at riding side by side |
I travel lean |
And I will try my best to be |
To you no burden, weight, or beast |
I hope it’s clear and that you understand |
As we take each other’s hands |
You ain’t my woman |
And woman, I am not your man |
I do believe we all belong and everything that’s right and wrong |
Comes from a light that you can’t see but if you try |
You can feel it swell and rise slowly reaching out to find you |
Open the door ain’t nobody yours |
So there ain’t no reason to run from all you’re losing |
I came upon a wounded beast |
She was lying in the sand |
Her heart held in her hand |
How do you pretend to try |
To save a thing that’s meaning to die |
Do you try or walk on by |
So Carrboro woman, won’t you walk with me |
There’s some place I have to go |
And I don’t want to go alone |
And if what you want ain’t where I’ll be |
Then my love I’ll understand |
You ain’t my woman |
And woman, I am not your man |
