Vasudo > Songs > The Empress Of Organos > Lyrics


  • Written By: Rick Mitarotonda & Matt Campbell
We've been livin in the hills and trees
just wheelin on the knees ain't a breeze
The sky would open up, we'd stop to fill our cups
With harmony

With the road and the map behind,
started talkin 'bout a different line
When we were free
I told Bessie one day I felt so far away
from home
Started dancing in the streets
'til the Empress stomped her feet
and she said, "Whoa, oh!"

I'm the Empress of Organos
I'll tell you where your bad thoughts go
I've got the seeds to make them grow,
But I've locked them up deep down below

If you think you've got the golden key,
It's just darkness playing tricks for me
I'll twist and turn the paths you chose
to the shadows of Los Organos

Chorus:
We know you think that you're powerful, but we've got the love and rhythm,
You say it looks like rain today, but we say, Oh, what a day to be livin
We know you think that you're powerful, but we've got the love and rhythm,
You say it looks like rain today, but we say, Oh, what a day to be livin
