lyrics

One street town, they’re wanting more
The moon like a grapefruit on the porch
Always fighting in this civil war
Since the devil told me I was born a girl

All I ever did was lose you
Build then tear the tower down
Oh the days of my misspent youth
Never could pull my milk tooth
Never could pull my milk tooth

Holy woman said I deserve what I want
And I told her what I want is you
You’re the only chance I’ve got
To build my sorrow into someone new

This sorrow ain’t got nowhere to hide
Can’t hide this shifting heart of mine
Of broken rhymes and great divides
Her hands were my lifeline

Taught myself to hold my lips in place
Smile on my face doesn’t mean I’m trying
Hail that Mary full of grace,
Can’t keep gambling for better timing
Can’t keep gambling for better timing


Holy woman said I deserve what I want
And I told her what I want is you
You’re the only chance I’ve got
To build my sorrow into someone new

Mama said she’d never say my name
God would turn his back again
Learned to live with no refrain
When I was only seventeen

Words have weighed in my mouth for days
Take them out one by one
While you stand and look amazed
You never realized what you had done
You never realized what you had done

Holy woman said I deserve what I want
And I told her what I want is you
You’re the only chance I’ve got
To build my sorrow into someone new
Repeat x4

Holy woman said I deserve what I want

Grounded in their New England roots, Ruby Mack’s name references a sweet and tart apple—radiantly passionate, and fiery red. Ruby Mack encapsulates both the band’s unapologetic existence and simultaneous commitment to vulnerability and softness. Inspired by Americana traditions, these four songstresses are rough around the edges with their unabashed harmonies, and pictorial lyricism. ... more
