Autumn's Child Lyrics - Safe As Milk - Captain Beefheart

Go back ten years ago sunbeams dancin' round 

Go back ten years ago sunbeams dancin' down 

Autumn's child Autumn child 

Autumn's child got a loophole round her finger 

Halo rings her head 

Cornhusk hair makes me linger 

Her cat's stare meets my dare 

A man's chair greets my stare 

Gonna be my wife she sang she said 

Ooh, she's gonna be my wife 

Gonna start my heart she said 

(I'm still not sure if this last phrase is correct..."starch my life?!) 

(start or spark my heart?) 

Go back ten years ago sunbeams in her hair 

Go back ten years ago sunbeams fill the air

I'll just spin, be nimble 

Level down and tremble 

Fish pond streak of light 

Found the child I had to find 

Apple shine share together 

Got the time to make her mine 

Fish pond streaks?love kind 

Found the child I had to find 

Autumn's child - I met her at a balloon-bust picnic 

Ooh, she caught me with the Beauty Queen 

Her jade-green eyes 

Buttons and bows and fancy ties 

Her feet of dust under trees of rust 

Make them sandals gambol under knees of trust 

Gonna be my wife gonna spice my life 

Gonna be my wife she sang she said 

Photos 

Gonna be my wife gonna spice my life she said 

Go back ten years ago sunbeams shining down 

Go back ten years ago sunbeams glancin' round.... 

Autumn's child...
