Yankee Bayonet (I Will Be Home Then) - The Decemberists[00:00:00]

Heart-carved tree trunk Yankee bayonet[00:00:09]

A sweetheart left behind[00:00:13]

Far from the hills of the sea-swelled Carolinas[00:00:17]

That's where my true love lies[00:00:21]

Look for me when the sun-bright swallow[00:00:34]

Sings upon the birch bough high[00:00:37]

But you are in the ground with the voles and the weevils[00:00:42]

All a'chew upon your bones so dry[00:00:46]

But when the sun breaks[00:01:07]

To no more bulletin battle-cry[00:01:11]

Then will you make a grave[00:01:15]

For I will be home then[00:01:19]

I will be home then[00:01:24]

I will be home then[00:01:28]

I will be home then[00:01:32]

Then[00:01:37]

When I was a girl how the hills of Oconee[00:01:46]

Made a seam to hem me in[00:01:50]

There at the fair when our eyes caught careless[00:01:54]

Got my heart right pierced by a pin[00:01:58]

But oh did you see all the dead of Manassas[00:02:11]

All the bellies and the bones and the bile[00:02:14]

Though I lingered here with the blankets barren[00:02:19]

And my own belly big with a child[00:02:23]

But when the sun breaks[00:02:45]

To no more bulletin battle-cry[00:02:49]

Then will you make a grave[00:02:53]

For I will be home then[00:02:57]

I will be home then[00:03:01]

I will be home then[00:03:05]

I will be home then[00:03:10]

Stems and bones and stone walls too[00:03:16]

Could keep me from you[00:03:21]

Scaly skin is all too few[00:03:25]

To keep me from you[00:03:29]

But oh my love though our bodies may be parted[00:03:40]

Though our skin may not touch skin[00:03:44]

Look for me with the sun-bright sparrow[00:03:48]

I will come on the breath of the wind[00:03:52]
