Jump the Broom   Adrienne Young / Will Kimbrough         "Join two hands, this broom step over   take a sweet kiss from your own true lover”      Diamond birthright Painted Flower   Seventeen years and sixteen hours   Out the window stares a girl   Kentucky wonder head full of curls   She ain’t my mama this ain’t my world   Too much swine for just one Pearl      Jump the broom, jump the broom   Fly me away from this dark room   Can’t go too far can’t leave too soon   Love take my hand let’s jump the broom      Broken bottle on the floor   Whiskey drippin’ down through the boards   Old man shoutin’ come back and fight   Young man run into the night      Was late ast summer down by the creek   Two young lovers fell warm and sweet   Kindred spirits kindred scars   Jordan’s Banks didn’t seem so far      Jump the broom, jump the broom   Fly me away from this dark room   Can’t go too far can’t leave too soon   Love take my hand let’s jump the broom      New moon risin’ dark and still   Pearl’s a droppin’ from her windowsill   Tears burn and gather in brown eyes   Little sister waves goodbye      Now young Corey’s waitin’ down by the gate   Can’t call the preacher   It’s much too late   But that don’t stop his bended knee no no      Pretty Pearl girl marry me!      Jump the broom, jump the broom   Fly me away from this dark room   Can’t go too far can’t leave too soon   Love take my hand let’s jump the broom
