The Band Jemima Surrender (Alternate Mix) lyrics

Jemima surrender
I'm gonna give it to you
Ain't no pretender
Gonna ride in my canoe

If I were a barker in a girly show
Tell ya what I'd do
I'd lock the door, tear my shirt
And let my river flow

Oh, oh, sweet Jemima
Won't cha come out tonight?
The ground is so warm
And the moon is so bright

Jemima surrender
That's all you have to do
I'll bring over my Fender
And I'll play all night for you

There's a bird on my head
And his mouth won't talk
You know he laughs just like a goose
But he looks like a hawk

Jemima, you know
What I'm tryin' to say
Meet me in front

And we'll fly away

You can change your name
You can find a new walk
You can change a lock
It's all the same

You don't have to give out
If you'll only give in
You can jump and shout
But can't you see, girl, that I'm bound to win

Jemima surrender
I'm gonna give it to you
Ain't no pretender
Gonna see my tattoo

I hand you my rod
And you hand me that line
That's what you do
We ain't doing much fishin'
Or drinkin' any wine

Sweet Jemima if I were king
I'd fix it up with a diamond ring
