lyrics

There’s a crow he’s laughing through the mist and the reeds
As the grand piano makes the women bleed at the Swamp Bordello,
Where the men get mellow

There were fights for gambling where the river began,
In the cold struck matches for a cold, gold tan
At the Drippy Cave
Where the men were brave

Green leaves on trees
And I’m wondering how
At the forest highway
Where the signs say stay away

One sight to see
Where the river bends
At the sunset view
Where the river ends
And the dead call

You’re the long lost lover that we need to retrieve
When we wrote that song about you why did you leave
And for where?
Cos we’ve looked quite hard

For you the wind goes whistling cos the day’ll be dull
And I wonder if the thunder cracks are cracking you’re skull
Cos we think you’re dead and gone
Will you prove us wrong?

Slow stale breeze
From the rocking chair
Blowing prophecies
From the prophet there as he carves at the bark with a stare
Blind and free!
Boarding up his shack
Now the town retire from the drunken mire
Just a few remain for what the prophet’s saying
He says oh!
