17th Century Girl

from Rough Draft (2022) by Trappers Cabin

lyrics

I met a girl from the 17th century, I showed her all the things that she’d never have
Fast cars and jumbo airplanes, stoves and tvs and and comfy mattress pads
She sat me down and looked at me deeply, I knew that there was something she wanted to say
I served her coffee with a biscuit and gravy, she ate it all and proceeded to state:
True, all these things you have are cool but in the end it’s only you, the only thing you have is YOU!!!
Fast asleep I was woken by light beams, A future man appeared to me in my room.
He showed me things I would never be privy too, like flying cars and never ending perfume
I sat him down and looked at him deeply, He knew there was something I wanted to say
He served me tablets of meatloaf and green beans, I ate it all and proceeded to state:
True, all these things you have are cool but in the end it’s only you, the only thing you have is YOU!!
Bring forth all of your heartbreak, pack it up and ship it away.
It’s in the past, it’s in the future, it’s riding shotgun in your new cheverolet
True, all these things you have are cool but in the end it’s only you, the only thing you have is YOU!!
True, all these things you have are cool but in the end it’s only you, the only thing you have is YOU!!
