Bit By Bit

(album: The Sticks - 2012)

Bit by bit, I'm gonna get my bricks out in the sticks
Bit by bit, I'm gonna build my house in the wildest thickets
I'm gonna get away from all those mouths and my shit
I'm gonna say goodbye to all the la-di-da-di-da-di-da-di-da

I'm getting on a mountain
Away from the people on the ground and
Some cop sticking up my wagon

One by one, (One by one!) I'm gonna get my properties all
Bundled up (Bundled up!) to the branch of a poplar tree and
Saunter off with a buck and a wildebeest
We're getting lost, we're getting lost, we're getting lo-o-o-o-o-o-ost

I'm getting on a mountain
Away from the people on the ground and
Some cop sticking up my wagon
Chop-chop, we gonna build a cabin
Up top on a pretty little mountain
Fuck off all you people on the ground, yeah

No, I won't bring too much of anything
Maybe a little slicker for the rain
Maybe just a good book and a heart to break
I'll make a mistress of a little Wiccan thing

Bit by bit, I'm gonna get my bricks out in the sticks
Bit by bit, I'm gonna build my house in the wildest thickets
I'm gonna get away from all those mouths and my shit
I'm gonna say goodbye to all the la-di-da-di-da-di-da-di-da

I'm getting on a mountain
Away from the people on the ground and
Some cop sticking up my wagon
Chop-chop, we gonna build a cabin
Up top on a pretty little mountain
Fuck off all you people on the ground, yeah
