Clean Dirt Songtext
von Caroline Jones

Well I don′t know what I was thinkin' before, but I know now
I′m sorry, not really, & I'm not quite sure what I'm dancing around
That other boy who picked me
Flowers ain′t comin′ round this way no more
& The dirt's real clean, so what you holdin′ your pretty nose for?

Well the truth is I picked out this outfit with you naked in mind
& Yes, indeed, I want you as much as you want me, all the time
& Sometimes I hope,
Hope that you need me & hope you won't walk out the door
The dirt′s real clean, so what you holdin' your pretty nose for?


I always preferred the Earth to the sky; I always dodged your alibis
& Yet here I am, pretending to fly
Not that I meant to frustrate your parts
Just that I may have mistaken my fragile heart
For broken wings, ain′t no such thing, I'm sure
& The dirt's real clean, so what you holdin′ your pretty nose for?

Well I′m almost to the ground &
Something tells me I'll soon understand
The ground looks hard from the air,
But it just may be a soft place to land
I′m not the woman I will be tomorrow or the child I was before
& The dirt's real clean, so what you holdin′ your pretty nose for?

I always preferred the Earth to the sky; I always dodged your alibis
& Yet here I am, pretending to fly
Not that I meant to frustrate your parts
Just that I may have mistaken my fragile heart
For broken wings, ain't no such thing, I′m sure
& The dirt's real clean, so what you holdin' your pretty nose for?
