" And in Time ,,
She come down from Asheville
That Carolina Burb
Preaching Gospel
words that few ,
had ever heard
Rolling up her sleeves
Pitching a Product
made of Roots
OIl and Cactus Sheaves
Towns folk in a Group
listened as she began
to lay on her spiel ,,
Swaying , all as a Troupe
Minds melting ,,
into her hand
All they could do was Reel
Mesmerized ,,
They began one by one
to float, ,,
airborne
Hypnotized
Floating ,,
Sailing away ,,
as toward the Sun
Joe was a Man of Insight
Upon him
her words had no effect
a Man of wrong or right
No Man of Neglect
Casting his Line
to reel them all back in
Motionless in his mind
Grounded ,, without Sin
Standing inches ,,
outside of time
Said it takes a Lesson
before we can learn
Said it's a Mess when
Life becomes upturned
Takes an Angel ,,
to shine the Light
Takes a Woman ,
get me through
this night
Takes another Page
to be turned
and sometimes
it takes a fall
before we'll learn
meanwhile ,
Back Down
in Uptown
over the shop of Clowns
Asheville Woman
Casting spells
Roamed ,,
making her rounds
~~~~~~ In time of Need ,, Plant that Seed ~~~~~~~
