Bloodletter Lyrics by Marlon Williams

Sad but True: The Secret History of Country Music Songwriting

0

[Verse 1: Marlon Williams]
There's a letter I never sent that I wrote to your family
Your mother and father, the people back home, about some far-distant tragedy
Hold back when I took you away from the land where you had grown
To a life up in these hills, you and me, man and wife alone
[Chorus: Marlon Williams]
Oooh, this letter's written with love
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, and this letter's written in blood
Oooh oooh oooh
[Verse 2: Marlon Williams]
Into the sun, a baby born, the blue, blue eyes of a boy
The cold finger of winter's chill, no time to say goodbye
A monster cries on the side of the hill, a child walks through a field
A woman lies in a box somewhere, the letter gets written and sealed
[Chorus: Marlon Williams]
Oooh, this letter's written with love
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, and this letter's written in blood
Oooh oooh oooh
[Verse 3: Delaney Davidson]
Follow me down to the garden
Where life grows choking and wild
Where the flowers are sickly, the flowers are sweet
The horses, they bend and they smile
See fate, it is no sliding scale
It is firm and it'll rip out your seams
So throw your little coin down into my well
See how much fortune it brings
[Chorus: Marlon Williams]
Oooh, this letter's written with love
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, and this letter's written in blood
Oooh oooh oooh
[Chorus: Marlon Williams]
Oooh, this letter's written with love
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, and this letter's written in blood
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, this letter's written with love
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh, and this letter's written in blood
Oooh oooh oooh
