The days are short and the shadows long
The curtains closed and the drapes are drawn
Garbage bins rumble like the tumbleweeds
And hibernation calls the beasts to sleep

When the stars fall out of the midnight sky nobody puts them back
And in the ancient light that shutters past
Other eyes are looking back

The kids and the chickens and the dogs and me
Don't know much about polarity
Or daylight saving you can't keep
We spend out time balancing wake and sleep

Right arm strong from guiding hammer and saw
Stiff upper lip strong bottom jaw
Left arm steady from holding those pennyweight nails
Hundred heads in a row doesn't guarantee tails

Undertaker in a pastel shirt
Concerned about the urgency of dirt
Things that move slow seem long to last
Something to think about when you're pumping gas

Down the road you go, oh lord the rain and snow
Winds that steal your breath
These songs have been sung before and you know they will again
Inverted words of other men

Flood water washed our sins downstream
They flutter like flags in the dogwood trees
And somebody else can wash them clean
In rivulets so serpentine

I'm going to Graceland!

So you sing loud or sing pretty on a Sunday morning
Or you stay up late and blow your horn
Shallow puddle or the deep blue sea
Depends on what you think you see
Depends on what you think you see
