Tight To The Jar - Kelly Joe Phelps[00:00:00]
It's a ditch okay[00:00:35]
I have shoes and a blanket[00:00:37]
My head resting light on a stone[00:00:41]
Though it's hard it's still rounded with a pocket for Brains[00:00:46]
Or what goes for in halls under roof tile[00:00:51]
We'll sing another blistering ballad for grandma[00:01:00]
Melody sweet till it rolls out the ears[00:01:06]
And the beer flows free as advice[00:01:12]
With a tight hand holding the jar[00:01:21]
With a tight hand holding the jar[00:01:27]
The mud cakes my chin strap[00:01:45]
Fills up my cuffs[00:01:48]
As I plod now from creek edge to street side[00:01:50]
As it dries I can whittle it little by little[00:01:55]
Hey look now I'm light as a bee[00:02:01]
Those gray clouds mean nothing to one such as I[00:02:09]
Though shadows stand tall as some school master whack[00:02:15]
On the back of a well intentioned quiet kid[00:02:22]
Arms held fast to the jar[00:02:30]
Arms held fast to the jar[00:02:36]
And it's slow[00:02:41]
Slow the idea[00:02:45]
The coming around of a sensible word[00:02:48]
It hovers and shakes like a hummingbird wing[00:02:53]
At the end of a long hot year[00:03:02]
At the end of a long hot year[00:03:07]
Fry up that supper[00:03:24]
We'll kill it for breakfast[00:03:27]
Turn the table down side and crazy[00:03:30]
With the legs up[00:03:36]
The women up[00:03:37]
The men up to Church for the spirit[00:03:39]
The hen yard the bent steel Tack wrap[00:03:42]
It's a ditch yeah I know that [00:03:50]
And I do wonder[00:03:53]
How that bright faced[00:03:56]
Ten year old me of a boy[00:03:58]
Found the road out I never could see[00:04:03]
With my eyes held tight to the jar[00:04:11]
My eyes held tight to the jar[00:04:17]
And it's slow[00:04:22]
Slow the idea[00:04:26]
The coming around of a sensible word[00:04:29]
It hovers and shakes like a hummingbird wing[00:04:35]
At the end of a long hot year[00:04:43]
At the end of a long hot year[00:04:50]
At the end of a long hot year[00:05:00]
