lyrics

Mrs. McCoy
(c)Kevin Fisher

Mrs. McCoy had a girl and a boy
A husband who was brave and true
But long since lately passed away
Her hair is grey but in a younger day
You could tell she wore it well
In her sky blue Chevrolet

She still lives on the plot of land her husband plowed with his own hands
And walks out in the garden like she always has
She laughs and says that she intends to lay herself down next to him
So they can watch the stars from underneath the grass
And every Sunday I arrive, thankful that she’s so alive
Smiling like a child with a toy
Mrs. McCoy

She loved to dance but rarely had the chance
Her husband was her one true love
But never found the beat
If she only could she swears to God she would
Stumble through his clumsy moves
Bless his two left feet

She stares out at some memory that touches her reminding me
That there are secrets only lifetime lovers know
She shakes it off and carries on, asks me how my week has gone
And taps her foot to something on the radio
And every Sunday I arrive, thankful that she’s so alive
Smiling like a child with a toy
Mrs. McCoy

And when I pray I always say
Thank you Lord, for making her

She still lives on the plot of land her husband plowed with his own hands
And walks out in the garden like she always has
She laughs and says that she intends to lay herself down next to him
So they can watch the stars from underneath the grass
And every Sunday I arrive to see the one who gave me life
And taught me how to fill it up with joy
Mrs. McCoy

about

Naked To The World Los Angeles, California

We tried to break up. But there must be some quantum time-shift or random wormhole that forces us to slide back into perpetual existence. We started in 1993, garnered some accolades, released 5 CDs, toured the U.S., had our songs cut by major artists, and garnered a bit of commercial airplay ourselves. We are grateful for everyone who has ever come to one of our shows and enjoyed our music. ... more
