JANUARY 6
|
|
Waiting for the lozenge to clear yer throat
|
So you can stand up and say all the words you wrote
|
All along the fences, all along the lines
|
Yer gumption's fading and the honeysuckle's dyin'
|
Honeysuckle's dyin' and the birds all cry
|
|
Rain around the houses, rain around the limbs
|
Everything yer hating is everything you been
|
So pass around the roses, shiny up the bell
|
How dry I once was there ain't no tung can tell
|
|
Twist another ashbone, make it phat and loose
|
Apply the isopropyl and play that ol' gray goose
|
All along the fences, all along the lines
|
Yer gumption's fading and the honeysuckle's dyin'
|
Honeysuckle's dyin' and the birds all cry
|
