Cover Up The Sun - Counting Crows[00:00:00]

Colorado passes by[00:00:08]

Like writing on a wall[00:00:10]

Headed eastward down[00:00:12]

To New Orleans[00:00:13]

Dipping into Texas[00:00:16]

As the stars are fading out[00:00:18]

And there's still a lot of country[00:00:20]

In between[00:00:21]

When I left California[00:00:24]

I was 29 years old[00:00:25]

And the world just spun me around[00:00:28]

Now I watched Louisiana scroll[00:00:32]

Across the window pane[00:00:34]

And I'm facing the direction[00:00:36]

I am bound[00:00:37]

Cover up the sun [00:00:40]

Let the river run[00:00:44]

Make that water run[00:00:48]

And wash me away[00:00:51]

Me Clifton and the king of cats[00:00:54]

Are sat down in the road[00:00:56]

Pedro said boys [00:00:58]

We're three of kind[00:00:59]

He said I sat with river rats[00:01:02]

And I hung my hat with diplomats[00:01:04]

Had four brothers once upon a time[00:01:06]

He said they tore the country[00:01:10]

Far away from the Rio Grande[00:01:12]

And the road just wore them down[00:01:14]

So they bought a house[00:01:18]

Beside a lake [00:01:19]

Outside of New Orleans[00:01:20]

And they stared in the direction[00:01:22]

Of the escalating sound[00:01:24]

Cover up the sun [00:01:26]

Let the river run[00:01:30]

Take this good man's son[00:01:34]

And wash him away[00:01:37]

Sister indeciperable is talking[00:01:42]

To a wall[00:01:45]

Back in New York city [00:01:47]

She's a queen[00:01:48]

Well resurrector Genuflect [00:01:50]

She saves the one she can't protect[00:01:52]

Keeps the chapel pressed [00:01:54]

If not Sistine[00:01:56]

She drinks Absinthe mixed[00:01:58]

With Kerosene to keep[00:01:59]

Herself upright[00:02:00]

But the word still breaks her down[00:02:02]

If you can't keep your[00:02:06]

Sh*t together[00:02:07]

When God is on your side[00:02:08]

What chance do you have[00:02:10]

When he's not around [00:02:11]

Cover up the sun [00:02:14]

Make that water run[00:02:18]

Let the river come[00:02:22]

And wash me away[00:02:25]

People of the Mardi Gras [00:02:31]

In their Tuesday best[00:02:32]

Waiting for the South to rise again[00:02:34]

Children of Geronimo[00:02:38]

Grieving for the West[00:02:40]

Feather dressed[00:02:42]

And marching their refrain[00:02:43]

All in the dark of Armstrong Park[00:02:46]

The marching bands ascend[00:02:48]

But they never make a sound [00:02:50]

Just a quiet prayer for communist square[00:02:54]

The silent congregation there [00:02:56]

The night to rest our eyes in[00:02:58]

We just look to the horizon for a change[00:03:00]

Cover up the sun [00:03:04]

Let the river run[00:03:08]

I pray the water come[00:03:12]

And wash me away[00:03:15]

Carved in the sky [00:03:18]

I'll make that diesel fly[00:03:22]

Come on just lay me down to die[00:03:26]

And just take me away[00:03:29]

Yeah[00:03:32]
