White Shoes Lyrics

Lyric discussion by saltandpepper 

Cover art for White Shoes lyrics by Conor Oberst

it's "you, my sweet, the bodhi tree i sit beneath, i sit beneath"

yeah, it's definitely Bodhi and not "Bowdhi" (wth is that?)

while it's definitely "bodhi" tree, i'm not 100% sure it's "you, my sweet", although that was my initial reaction. when i listen to it with my speakers on full blast, i hear "you must sweep", and i must say, that actually makes sense if you put the reference into context. however, it also does sound like "my sweet". shrugs

now that i've listened to it a few more times full blast, i'd actually have to take back that last comment. it does, in fact, sound like "my sweet". :)
