"Fly Little Crow" lyrics

"Fly Little Crow"
(feat. Iron & Wine)

Fly little crow
High as a kite until you're breathless
Wild and bold like your mother's clothes
Little Rock may you roll
Slow and steady like the Cumberland River
May you wind down every road

Ask me all kinds of questions
I'll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I'll help you find them on your own
Tell them girls they're more than pretty
Keep those mean boys on their toes
When you're wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
Be the thing you hold

Twirl little girl
Follow your heart, and be sure to guard it
Take care where you cast your pearls
Never settle little petal
Use your voice and stand up tall
Lead those flowers from the wall

Ask me all kinds of questions
I'll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I'll help you find them on your own
Teach them boys you're more than pretty
Keep those mean girls on their toes
When you're wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
Be the thing you hold onto

Ask me all kinds of questions
I'll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I'll help you find them on your own
Tell them girls they're more than pretty
Keep those mean boys on their toes
When you're wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
Be the thing you hold onto
