Where Is Bobbie Gentry? (Live) lyrics

by

Jill Sobule



[Verse 1]
Out in the desert where the sun slowly cures deep brown
She's got a little shack, a pickup truck
Parked out on the edge of town
It's just what remember, no one knows where she'd be
Maybe she's in heaven passing black-eyed peas

[Chorus]
Where is Bobbie Gentry?
Where is Bobbie Gentry?

[Verse 2]
Up in Alaska, Hollywood, or maybe in Japan
I bet that she's still beautiful
Goes barefoot everywhere she can
Does she still play guitar or write a song or two?
Maybe that was over, she's got better things to do

[Chorus]
Where is Bobbie Gentry?
Where is Bobbie Gentry?

[Bridge]
If I could just find you
I would love you then I'd leave you alone
If I could just find you
I would love you then I'd leave you alone
Alone
[Verse 3]
In 1967, Bobbie made it on the Billboard charts
Then ten years later
Disappeared and broke everybody's heart
Does she ever go to Choctaw?
Ever go back on that ridge?
Well, I was the baby
Who was thrown off the Tallahatchie Bridge
I was the baby
Who was thrown off the Tallahatchie

[Chorus]
Where is Bobbie Gentry?
Where is Bobbie Gentry?
B-O-double B-I-E G-E-N-T-R-Y
Where is Bobbie Gentry?
Where is Bobbie Gentry? (Woo)

[Outro]
Thank you so much
