From American Weekend2012

Written by Katie Crutchfield

Lyrics

Rose, 1956

Sharp hangover, it is Christmas Eve It fades and evaporates Passing the trains and lakes and trees Your breaths are short and urgent and it is unsettling 'Cause you got married when you were 15, 15 I hide out from telephone wires at Waxahatchee Creek Your body, weak from smoke and tar and subsequent disease You got married when you were 15, 15 Miscalculation, each other's only living means Your arms wane thinner Your legs surrender Sunlight probing, it is Christmas Eve No stitch of shade, we pass by lakes and big mimosa trees Your breaths are short and urgent and it is unsettling You got married when you were 15, 15

Waxahatchee on Dork

Waxahatchee has shared a new single, 'Mud', taken from her 'Tigers Blood' sessions

The new track is from her Grammy-nominated album sessions, ahead of European and UK summer tour dates.

Waxahatchee has confirmed some UK tour dates for June 2025

The run culminates in a headline show at London's Hammersmith Apollo.

Waxahatchee has shared a new single, 'Much Ado About Nothing'

The track follows her recent album 'Tigers Blood'.

Waxahatchee: "I spend so much time thinking about how different I am that I don't ever really think about how I'm the same"

Examining her 30s with the help of a few new pals, Waxahatchee has come roaring back with an assured new album that’s brimming with confidence.
