Elliott Smith Southern Belle Lyrics

Southern Belle Lyrics

killing a southern belle is all you know how to do
that and give other people hell
it`s what they expect from you too
but i wouldn`t have you how you want
i don`t wanna walk around
i don`t even want to breathe
i live in a southern town
where all you can do is grit yr teeth
but i wouldn`t have you how you want
how come you`re not ashamed of what you are?
and sorry that you`re the one she got?
ain`t nobody talking now
nobody nothing`s said
no one`s about to shout
nobody`s seen red
but i wouldn`t have you how you want
you`re killing a southern belle
killing a southern belle
killing a southern belle
