Cover art for Nebraska lyrics by Melissa Ferrick

Okay, one correction: "you're body just don't work for me no more" is what I thought she was saying...and I also distinctly remember hearing her say "boy" in there somewhere which has kind of confused me...anyone know anything about that?

She does say boy once. shes saying throughout the whole song that she cant be with this person anymore because his body doesnt work for her anymore. because she is a lesbian, i am guessing.
