oh, blessed little thing, blessed as a ring, blessed motherfucker, didnt try to help her
reachin out to you, reachin for the truth, got nothin but the blues, nothin but abuse,
once there was a night, a night that was so bright, and that was long ago

oh, and that was long ago, longer than you know, forsaken and alone, with nowhere else to go,
blessed little heart, you are beatin in the dark, forsaken and along

oh, forsaken and alone, forgotten by the stones,
picked down to the bone, by all the buzzards and the crows
and they will not forget, remembering your death, lost and all alone

ever see a buzzard smile, when hes been waitin for a whil, and theres not much time to go,

oh, precious little mothers, be good to one another, and they will not discover, that underneath the cover,
precious little dove, im sendin you my love, and you can keep it if you want to

oh, clever little gypsy, did you think you could trick me, you show up with your poison, but you make too much noise and,
thats the last mistake, you  are ever gonna make, and you ll wish that you hadn't...
