lyrics
In College Hill, Kentucky, the roots of my family
Grew down by the river line
Mama told me stories of Elmer and Effie
And days on the farm in the summer time
Effie wore no diamond ring, but she had everything
Without ever having to pretend
She was wise, but not phased by the world and its' ways
Just living for the moment she was in
Effie Jane, Effie Jane
Was my Great Grandmother's name
I only met her once, just born, not even one
But, I feel like I know her just the same
She raised two good boys, they were her pride and joy,
She'd stand up to anyone who did them wrong
She wasn't one to fight, but she had a streak of fire
Thanks to Effie Jane, the high school had a prom
Effie Jane, Effie Jane
Was my Great Grandmother's name
I only met her once, just born, not even one
But, I feel like I know her just the same
Sundays at Cane Springs, they played no organ, picked no strings
But you could feel the spirit in the sound
Of every voice in the room, filling up each pew
And somewhere in my heart, I can hear Effie now
Brethren, we have met to worship and adore the Lord our God;
Will you pray with all your power, while we try to preach the Word?
Effie Jane, Effie Jane
Was my Great Grandmother's name
I only met her once, just born, not even one
But, I feel like I know her just the same
I feel like I know her just the same
Brethren, pray, and holy manna will be showered all around

Another solid effort start to finish. Very much a life lesson storytelling lyricist. To me still is very similar to James McMurtry which is not a bad thing. Looks like another album is dropping soon. That’s good news. Yimmy Kil
Everything about this album, from the old-timey instrumentation, the powerful lyrics, to Bella's amazing voice, transports you to a very specific place in your imagination, and it's a place worth going to! Cassie
