Lyrics
They call me Arthur Ravenel Jr., but Gussie called me 'Grace.'
I span the Cooper River, girl, I know your man's whole face.
Heard him whisperin' your name to the tugboats passing under.
Said you draw the world in straight lines... I just answer to the thunder.
[Chorus]
Come on down, blueprint girl, leave your grid-paper city.
Let my salt-air mess your hair up, show you something real pretty.
[Verse 2]
A single child's red sneaker, tangled monofilament line.
One half of a crab trap, a faded campaign sign.
A handful of spent shotgun shells from last year's duck season.
The rust on my own railings, there for no good reason.
[Chorus]
Come on down, blueprint girl, leave your grid-paper city.
Let my salt-air mess your hair up, show you something real pretty.
[Bridge]
You measure stress in concrete, the tensile strength of steel.
I just sigh in the summer heat, showin' you how 'low tide' feels.
"Your angles are too perfect," he told the tide last night.
Come see the kind of structure that was never built to be right.
[Outro]
Come on down, blueprint girl...
I'll hum for you.
