U.S. Knitting - Momus[00:00:00]

Mary Beth is living in a world of her own[00:00:08]

Sitting in the schoolhouse[00:00:12]

She sews all day with twine[00:00:14]

Making up a picture making up a song[00:00:17]

Some people say she's unusual in the mind[00:00:21]

They say that she's unusual in the mind[00:00:25]

My name's Abe I run the general store[00:00:29]

Mary Beth's a strange one pretty in her way[00:00:42]

Sitting in the classroom a rocking and a swaying[00:00:46]

A Sewing and a knitting to the rhythms of the rain[00:00:50]

Stuff from what she's seen mixed[00:00:55]

With stuff from in her brain[00:00:57]

And some say that you'll see America in there[00:00:59]

Folks say you'll see America there[00:01:03]

One day I had a strange dream[00:01:16]

And Mary Beth was in it[00:01:18]

I dreamed I plucked a bunch of[00:01:20]

Flowers and went to make a visit[00:01:22]

I marched up to the schoolhouse[00:01:24]

And bent down on one knee[00:01:26]

Asked Mary Beth respectfully[00:01:28]

If she would marry me[00:01:30]

Asked Mary Beth if she would marry me[00:01:32]

I said 'My name's Abe I run the general store'[00:01:36]

Mary Beth gazed down from[00:01:49]

The chair where she was sitting[00:01:51]

Said 'Abraham I thank you [00:01:53]

And I will on one condition[00:01:55]

Change the name of the store[00:01:58]

You keep call it US Knitting[00:01:59]

And move it stone by stone to[00:02:02]

The top of Sugar Mountain[00:02:04]

Move that building up to the[00:02:06]

Top of Sugar Mountain[00:02:08]

We will rebuild the general store[00:02:11]

There we'll sell my samplers [00:02:23]

Make paintings and sing songs[00:02:25]

Wait for the Lion of Judah[00:02:27]

Who is rising like the sun[00:02:29]

Our pets will be the eagles [00:02:31]

Our crest a rampant bear[00:02:33]

And we will see the whole[00:02:36]

Of America from there[00:02:37]

Some of it is pretty and some is pretty queer[00:02:40]

But we'll see the whole of America there[00:02:44]

Mary Beth's proviso didn't seem so strange[00:03:05]

I told her That scenario is easily arranged[00:03:09]

We'll live on Sugar Mountain [00:03:14]

I'll bring my General Store[00:03:16]

We'll call it US Knitting and[00:03:18]

Sell samplers by the door[00:03:20]

Our pets will be the eagles [00:03:22]

And our crest a rampant bear[00:03:24]

And when the Lion of Judah roars a mighty roar[00:03:26]

We'll see the whole of America there[00:03:30]
