Song information
Another song of mine written in the early 90's. I wrote this as a sort of escape from the fact that at the time, my life, though good in many respects, was still somewhat depressing. I'm not sure what this song was actually about, just some weird outdoor forest type story. This version was recorded in 2021. I did send it to an online radio station, which played it, and upon review, featured me as the artist of the day. That was a hoot. My friend, Derek, who I used to play with did help with some of the lyrics back in the day.

Lyrics
Jackie King never talks to no one
Mostly finding fancy with rhyme
If the hills are a long lonely climb
To where the seagull lost his way
And everyone is left behind
But there's always Bobbie Lee
If the winter fire doesn't blow your mind

You say the backwoods are fine this year
But you never know
To where the peacock spreads his fan
To where the knife comes down
And fortune hunters often find pale frowns
Where can Bobbie Lee be now
Wherever she is, we need her now
Jackie King And Bobbie Lee
Can you tell your story fast
Cause the legend never heals
If you look in the weeds
Truth can turn a fast wheel
Bobbie Lee has gone to where the sun will rise in sorrow

Bobbie Lee and Jackie King
Can you give your gift of grace
To a lonely country mind
If you look in the weeds
Maybe time will heal
Jackie King has gone
To where the sun will never follow

Bobbie Lee never talks to no one
Mostly finding fancy with rhyme
If the hills are a long lonely climb
To where the seagull lost his shadow
And all the world is left behind
But there's always Jackie King
If the summer fire doesn't blow your mind
