Remember The Mountain Bed - Billy Bragg[00:00:00]

Do you still sing of the mountain bed[00:00:07]

We made of limbs and leaves:[00:00:10]

Do you still sigh there near the sky[00:00:14]

Where the holly berry bleeds:[00:00:17]

You laughed as I covered you over[00:00:23]

With leaves face breast hips and thighs [00:00:25]

You smiled when I said the leaves were[00:00:31]

Just the color of your eyes [00:00:34]

Rosin smells and turpentine smells[00:01:13]

From eucalyptus and pine[00:01:17]

Bitter tastes of twigs we chewed[00:01:21]

Where tangled woodvines twine[00:01:24]

Trees held us in on all four sides so thick[00:01:29]

We could not see[00:01:33]

I could not see any wrong in you [00:01:38]

And you saw none in me [00:01:41]

Your arm was brown against the ground [00:01:55]

Your cheeks part of the sky [00:01:58]

As your fingers played with grassy moss [00:02:03]

And limber did you lie:[00:02:05]

Your stomach moved beneath your shirt[00:02:11]

And your knees were in the air[00:02:14]

Your feet played games with mountain roots[00:02:20]

As you lay thinking there [00:02:23]

Below us the trees grew clumps of trees [00:02:32]

Raised families of trees and they[00:02:35]

As proud as we tossed their heads[00:02:39]

In the wind and flung good seeds away:[00:02:42]

The sun was hot and the sun[00:02:47]

Was bright down in the valley below[00:02:50]

Where people starved and hungry[00:02:56]

For life so empty come and go [00:02:58]

There in the shade and hid from[00:03:08]

The sun we freed our minds and learned[00:03:11]

Our greatest reason for being here [00:03:16]

Our bodies moved and burned[00:03:19]

There on our mountain bed of leaves[00:03:24]

We learned lifes reason why[00:03:27]

The people laugh and love and dream [00:03:33]

They fight they hate to die [00:03:36]

The smell of your hair I know is still there [00:03:44]

If most of our leaves are blown [00:03:48]

Our words still ring in the brush[00:03:52]

And the trees where singing seeds are sown[00:03:54]

Your shape and form is dim [00:04:00]

But plain there on our mountain bed[00:04:02]

I see my life was brightest where you laughed[00:04:08]

And laid your head[00:04:12]

I learned the reason why man must work[00:04:25]

And how to dream big dreams [00:04:29]

To conquer time and space[00:04:33]

And fight the rivers and the seas[00:04:35]

I stand here filled with my emptiness now[00:04:41]

And look at city and land[00:04:44]

And I know why farms and cities are built[00:04:49]

By hot warm nervous hands [00:04:52]

I crossed many states just to stand here now [00:05:01]

My face all hot with tears [00:05:04]

I crossed city and valley desert and stream [00:05:08]

To bring my body here:[00:05:12]

My history and future blaze bright in me[00:05:16]

And all my joy and pain[00:05:20]

Go through my head on our mountain bed[00:05:25]

Where I smell your hair again [00:05:28]

All this day long I linger here[00:05:37]

And on in through the night[00:05:40]

My greeds desires my cravings hopes [00:05:44]

My dreams inside me fight:[00:05:47]

My loneliness healed my emptiness filled [00:05:52]

I walk above all pain[00:05:56]

Back to the breasts of my woman and child[00:06:01]

To scatter my seeds again[00:06:04]
