Robin Pecknold
She Got Dressed
[Verse 1]
He's made of sand
Not flesh and not bone
He's as good as the seeds he's sown
But he loves you so
Like no one else, you know could do
Put your wedding dress on
[Verse 2]
On the tip of my tongue
As the back beat cracks
I hit my drums
I get into the car
My interrogation starts
In the passenger seat
There's a torn up mess of tangled weeds
And a golden ring
Glimmerin' at her feet
[Chorus 1]
And the beat it goes on
She got she
Got dressed got
She got dressed up
And the beat it goes on
She got she
Got dressed got
She got dressed up
And the beat it goes on
[Verse 3]
Is he quick on his feet?
Does he ever look past you on the street?
Is he ever on time?
When he's getting home at night?
In the opposite side
Every argument deep in every night
Is it what you'd accept?
Is there anything that's left?
[Chorus 1]
And the beat it goes on
She got she
Got dressed got
She got dressed up
And the beat it goes on
She got she
Got dressed got
She got dressed up
[Chorus 2]
Beat will go on
Yeah the beat will go
For the king and the pawn
Yeah the beat will go on
Beat will go on
Yeah the beat will go
For the king and the pawn
Yeah the beat will go on
[Chorus 3]
Beat will go on
Over land over still
Out of the garden and over the hill
Beat will go on
Over land over still
Out of the garden and over the hill
