Sublime — Scarlet Begonias Live KUCI

As I was walkin' down Rubadub Square Winter chill to the wind but a nip to the air From another direction she was caught in my eye It could be an illusion but I might as well try, might as well try Rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes Knew, without asking, she was into the blues She had scarlet begonias tucked into her curls I knew right away she was not like other girls, like other girls Well I ain't never been right as I ain't never been wrong It seldom works out the way it does in this song Once in a while you get shown in the light In the strangest of places if you look at it right Well It was the summer of love and I thank the Lord above Because the woman took a lovin' over me Yes, and just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus 'Cause I sold off all my personal property A tight, tie-dye dress, she was a psychedelic mess We toured through the north, south, east and west We bought some mushroom tea, we sold some ecstasy Nitrous, opium acid, heroin and PCP And now I hear the police comin' after me Now I hear the police comin' after me The one scarlet with the flowers in her hair She's got the police comin' after me There ain't nothin' wrong with the way she moves All scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues And there ain't nothin' wrong with the love that's in her eyes I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass by Let that bitch pass by Just to let her pass by
