A Rectangle Picture - Mason Proffit

Jeanie is a lady

She walks my mind at night

I’m lyin' in this rice field

I know that it ain’t right

Everything has turned around

I think I’ll close my eyes

To shut out those machine gun sounds

That muffle all the cries

Ever since they called me My life ain’t been the same

An old rectangle picture

In an oval picture frame

Ever since they called me My life ain’t been the same

An old rectangle picture

In an oval picture frame

Little child of yellow skin

Come sit here on my knee

You tell me now your family’s gone

You blame it all on me My hands and arms don’t work no more

I guess they’ll send me home

I give to you a candy bar

To taste while you’re alone

Ever since they called me My life ain’t been the same

An old rectangle picture

In an oval picture frame
