Harris, Emmylou - Grievous Angel Lyrics
Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich
And welcome me back to town
Come out on your porch or I'll step into your parlour
And I'll tell you how it all went down
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And I remember something that you once told me
And I'll be damned if it did not come true
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
And they all lead me straight back home to you
We flew straight across that river bridge,
Last night half past two
The switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good day as we
Went rolling through
Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel
And now I know just what I have to do
Across those prairies with those waves of grain
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee
The news I could bring I met up with the king
On his head an amphetamine crown
He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt
And headed out for some desert town
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good saloon in every single town
And I remember something that you once told me
And I'll be damned if it did not come true
Twenty thousand roads I went down down down
And they all lead me straight back home to you
Twenty thousand roads I went down down down
And they all lead me straight back home to you

Harris, Emmylou Grievous Angel Comments
Gram’s deep blue Sea still carrying on and honoring him in everything she does. While his devil had him murdered in a way that would look like it was his fault. Filed for possession of all his assets the next day. Took for herself all the work that Gram and Emmy had done together and raised her children to never speak the name Gram Parsons.
Tom Brown did not write this. Gram wrote it for Emmylou. She was the one with the Calico Bonnet.
Info; this cuts off before the end, so be prepared.
angels whit you
Give her a copy of War and Peace and ELH would make it sound magical.
She's a survivor and thriver . i don't like what she he had done to her eyebrows though . looks rather haughty....whatever
Is that Crowell singing with her?
Is that Crowell singing with her?
I used to hate country until I started listening to Emmylou
What a LADY.......what a VOICE. Thx for sharing this.
Is this from Last Date? The song cuts off before the end :(
If Chris Hillman had called Phil Lesh instead of Gram Parsons, Jerry Garcia would probably still be alive and playing pedal steel...at 70...maybe next time.
Oh, and did I say Great upload? EXCELLENT!
Thank you for this! Now Emmylou, let's get GRAM INTO THE CMHOF!!!
I go from one Emmylou site to another!
Can't get enough!
She's more beautiful than ever.
