Witness Protection

Can I get a witness?
Cuz I’ve been a stranger
and I know you don’t recall my face at all
But you were my sister,
before you were famous,
but now you think I’m chasing your windfall
was it the moonshine
or all the high roads
was it the bitter stance
or some encrypted codes
was it the folk fest
or just a lucky guess?
you’d be my clementine
I’d be your best friend
Have you seen my brother?
He’s pounding pavement
I think those jackals must have found us after all
Although it’s winter,
I’m here to stake my claim
because I knew your real name once upon a time
and I guess I must be goin’ through withdrawl
musical break
So can I get a witness?
Please take this olive branch
It’s just a token, but it’ll do for now
This ain’t no guilt trip
this ain’t no holiday
this is a clue I think that you’re the cat’s meow
was it the moonshine
or all the high roads
was it the bitter stance
or some encrypted code
was it the folk fest
or just a lucky guess
you’d be my clementine
I’d be your best friend
