Lavinia's Song Lyrics

All The Little Pieces Lavinia's Song

Just a little north of town
Was the six-mile house
The way we travelers were
going
Everything never came back
out

Her long raven hair
Was as dark as her heart
One look inside her soft
blue eyes
Said she could do no harm

Lavinia, Lavinia
She'll send your message to
the devil when she reaches
her home
Lavinia, Lavinia
She'll give your message to
the devil and free your soul

"Do you have a family?
Anyone expect you home?
Yes, we have a vacancy"
But the traveler knew
something was wrong

He sat up all night
Afraid of what might be in
store
Suddenly there was a crash
As the bed dropped through
the floor

Lavinia, Lavinia
She'll send your message to
the devil when she reaches
her home
Lavinia, Lavinia
She'll give your message to
the devil and free your soul

A little time went by
They heard towns crying
"They charged her for the
crime!"
She tried to escape
But she couldn't get away
So she was to be hanged

She stood there in her
wedding dress
As that rope tied 'round her
neck
She inhaled her final breath
And jumped down to her death

Lavinia, Lavinia
She'll send your message to
the devil when she reaches
her home
Lavinia, Lavinia
She took my secret to the
devil and freed my soul
