Zoe & Chloe
(Chorus)
Zoe and Chloe were lovers
Zoe and Chloe were lovers
Zoe and Chloe were lovers
Were lovers
And they lived way back in the woods
They made all their own household goods
Drove a little truck
They had ev’rything they needed but luck
And they grew all their own stuff
They didn’t have much, but they had enough
Ev’rything they needed under the sun
But they didn’t have a gun
(Chorus)
And they chopped all their own wood
Life was sweet, it was very good
They thought they weren’t botherin’ anyone
They should have had a gun
They though that hardly anybody even knew they were there
As they fed each other and washed each other’s hair
They didn’t have a care
They didn’t have a prayer
(Chorus)
There was no warning, there was no sign
That this strange fruit would be torn from the vine
That it would never ripen in the warmth of the sun
But in the hell-heat of a gun
Zoe and Chloe, struck down in their prime and pride
By some redneck crackers with the world on their side
There was no place they could run
There was no place they could hide
(Chorus)
There was no warning, there was no sign
That this strange fruit would be torn from the vine
That it would never ripen in the warmth of the sun
But in the hell-heat of a gun
Zoe and Chloe, struck down in their prime and pride
By some redneck crackers with the world on their side
There was no place they could run
There was no place they could hide
