Lyrics Duluth - Mason Jennings

Duluth

Nobody says the things he says
Nobody moves like he moves
Nobody makes me feel this way
I’m gonna marry that boy oh lord I’m gonna marry that boy
Oh my mother said to me
Girl you better watch yourself
Cuz a railroad man is an absent man
But I’m gonna marry that boy oh lord I’m gonna marry that boy
We’ll live in a little house
North of Duluth
Where my grandmother lived in her youth
And when he comes homes at night
He’ll call to me «My sweet darling girl, Come lay with me»
And oh mother nothing compares
Nothing even comes close
To the way he comes up under me
I’m gonna marry that boy oh lord I’m gonna marry that boy
Marry him in his Easter clothes
Marry me in white
Beneath a canopy of unearthly light
And all our friends and family
Will all come to say «God Bless this union, God Bless this day.»
Soon all his burdens will be mine
Soon this love will set us free
All my hope lies with him now
I’m gonna marry that boy oh lord I’m gonna marry that boy
