Southern Grammar

(álbum: Lateness Of Dancers - 2014)

One day I tried to kneel
I tried to kneel but I could not
They said, "Go ye to the holy house"
And I took the long way around
Teacher, come teach me
Another way to be happy
"Hey, buddy boy, who's asking?
I've been looking for the same thing"
Chickamy, craney crow
Craney crow's a liar
Eat a peach or let it go
Yeah, you will take the long way home
Southern grammar
Father and child
Let this be simple for a little while
See is there work for me?
Is there a hammer and a nail?
Because I'm going that way anyway
Through the crippled green country
Teacher, come teach me
Preacher, come reach me
There's another way to be happy
And I've been looking for the same thing
See is there life for me?
Is there a wife and a baby?
Because I'm going that way anyway
Through the unfamiliar country
Southern grammar
Father and child
Let this be simple for a little while
Chickamy, craney crow
Craney crow's a liar
Eat a peach or let it go
Yeah, you will take the long way home
Southern grammar
Father and child
Let's just be simple for a little while
