Her Seductive Voice

HER SEDUCTIVE VOICE Her seductiveness rang out; in the still of night Every man listening out for her, shines his light She was a story teller on a pirate radio, no ads Moved from place to place coming with no bags With every new town; she broke a man’s heart Her stories of seduction gave every man a part Was not talking to all only you inside your head You took her into your heart and into your bed Smart enough, not to mention anyone by name Every man out there, playing a part in her game Gave out secret messages to those in the know With them running; to make love on her plateau She never as went without, each giving her gold Then rushing home to the radio, their story told Each was unsuspecting; of each other’s exploits Playing her way from New York, as off to Detroit She has done Minneapolis and back to the coast When done radio switched off, she; but a ghost She collected diamonds rings, pawned many too Because; no one ever saw her again, none knew Some left traumatised ending committing suicide Other's married quickly wanted her to their bride The woman on the radio, who left no good-byes Who stopped at nothing as left you with her lies Indiana Shaw . . . : /
