She's such a charmer oh no
She's such a charmer oh no
She's always looking at me
She's always looking at me
She's such a charmer oh no
Oh no

She stole my karma oh no
Sold it to the farmer oh no
She's always looking at me
She's always looking at me
She's such charmer oh no
Oh no

Born in West Virginia oh no
Married to the preacher oh no
She's always looking at me
She's always looking at me
She's such a charmer oh no
Oh no

She's always looking at me
She's always looking at me
She's such a charmer oh no
Oh no

    General Comment:Here's my take: the singer sees this woman... she's new in town, the wife of a minister, but is a hot maneater. the singer sees her eyeing and sizing him up as a prospect, he realizes it, and believes he will not be able to resist her and is gonna get in trouble with her (oh, no).

    also, definitely agree about a Pixies vibe in this song

    General Comment:I've had two guys tell me now this song reminds them of me. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, hahah. What do you all think? But this is a pretty damn awesome song, I love the scream.

    General Comment:This song is MOST definitely about their mother.
    1) his mother WAS born in West Virginia.
    2) his mother married a Pentecostal preacher
    3) when they performed this song on the O2 in London Live DVD as soon as they finished this song Caleb thanked his mother for being there.

    The first two alone are enough to tell you it's about their mom, #3 could be debated.

    General Comment:I LOVE everything about this song, except that shrieking.. it kinda ruins iy for me.
    But, I think that the lyrics and the music are absolutely amazing.. i wish they'd left out the screams though.

    I read somewhere that the song was about a preachers wife from when he was younger ("Married to the preacher oh no")and he wasnt allowed to go near her or something. I cant remember properly, which is annoying.

    Not my favourite song off the album, but is pretty awesome when I get past the screams, lol.

    General Comment:i fucking love this song, i LOVE but LOVE the way he screams, he doesnt try to make it pretty or just try to make it sound acceptable.. i dont know i love his liberty to be honest with his lyrics an the way he uses his voice
    also i love how the scream shows the way he feels when he thinks about the girl, its like a rush to him like he would get chills all over his body and couldnt keep it in for any longer and releases his emotion
    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahcaleb keeps me alive
    ILOVE U FOLLOWILSSSSSSS!!!!

    My Opinion:I think he's trying to be funny with this song, when I saw him in concert it looked like he was almost to the point of laughing when he was playing this song, and with every scream there were images on the screen that seemed kind of comical.
