Patty Griffin - Perfect White Girls Lyrics

Patty Griffin Lyrics

"Perfect White Girls"

He climbed the snowy white mountain
Slipped down the snowy white hill
Drank from a water fountain
Water was sweet and chilled

Sunshine on a shiny ocean
Sunshine on a shiny bay
I opened a tiny shutter and
Sunshine blew me away

I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing about
Perfect white girls who wear gold

I'm very busy
I'm very, very busy, baby
I'm very, very busy
Becoming invisible

Why would you want to?
Why would you want to disappear?
As good as a woman
As any woman that's sitting here

I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing about
Perfect white girls

So here I come in the river of my hips
Here I come with my big red lips
Here me now, my newfound friend
Because I'm never going back again

I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing
I don't know a thing about
Perfect white girls
