Lyrics Days of Rum - Marissa Nadler

Days of Rum

She’d know in her time
She was young and yearned to die
She gazed at the light
In the corner in the night
And a man come to her
In the dead of old winter
And the doldrums, it was fine
To touch her body and her mind
Singing dum-diddy-dum
Days of fun, days of rum
Singing dum-diddy-dum
Days of fun, days of rum
Scarlet in the wine
Raise the bloody blind
Oh, she’d know in her time
She was young and yearned to die
But the roses never came
She was just some
And in her bed, she bleeds
As she dreamt of her dying day
Singing dum-diddy-dum
Days of fun, days of rum
Singing dum-diddy-dum
Days of fun, days of rum
