Jim White

Michael Davis Pratt (born March 10, 1957) known professionally as Jim White, is a Southern American singer-songwriter and guitarist. White's music can be loosely described as alternative country, but veers off in different, sometimes experimental directions with occasional nods[citation needed] to Tom Waits and the literary narratives of Flannery O'Connor, Cormac McCarthy, and Harry Crews. more »

Upon awakening I find myself 
Lying in some woods,
And for the longest time I've sat here, 
Just trying to remember why 
I feel like I am floating, 
Why blood is running down my shirt
Then my memory returns to me 
As the pain comes flooding;
Into my heart,
My baby she stabbed me in my heart.
Left me here to die,
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
And I know why

I hear the sound of distant footsteps, 
And I know that she is running
From that past which will pursue her 
Until the day that she dies.
'Cause I know about her family, 
And their crimes upon her body
So I guess it wasn't me at all 
That she was trying to kill
When she drove that knife 
Into my heart
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
Left me here to die
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
Really came as no surprise.

Over the hill there is a highway, 
Now I hear a truck is stopping 
She's flagged somebody down 
And asked 'em for a ride.
And I would try to follow her, 
But I don't seem to be able
To lift this heavy body anymore, 
As the light fails, 
And the darkness falls
Into my heart
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
Left me here to die
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
So now I'll just, I'll just close my eyes
Close my eyes as the darkness falls
Into my heart
My baby she stabbed me in my heart
Into my heart
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
