Rags Of Flowers - John & Mary[00:00:00]
City streets with noises abound[00:00:32]
Telephone wires sparkle with sound[00:00:35]
All believe impeachably[00:00:38]
A world without end amen amen[00:00:40]
And the grass[00:00:43]
Grew yellow and brown[00:00:44]
And the sky[00:00:45]
Wasn't blue[00:00:47]
And at first[00:00:48]
When our radios worked[00:00:49]
We wouldn't believe it was true[00:00:51]
Boy with friend a walkin' the land[00:00:54]
Woman in fields a plowin' the earth[00:00:56]
Goods a plenty in front of the store[00:00:59]
Life was in love with the mushroom cap war[00:01:02]
And the grass[00:01:04]
Grew yellow and brown[00:01:05]
And the sky wasn't blue[00:01:07]
And at first[00:01:09]
When our radios worked[00:01:11]
We wouldn't believe it was true[00:01:12]
Looking for the fort we built[00:01:37]
By the old abandoned mine[00:01:39]
But there was nothing[00:01:42]
Nothing we could find[00:01:43]
There was no place for seeking and hiding[00:01:47]
No time left for us finding[00:01:50]
The worn and whiskey bottles[00:01:53]
As my cold hands[00:01:55]
Drawing crosses on the ground[00:01:56]
Searching for our secret tree[00:02:25]
The one with both our names[00:02:27]
But there was nothing[00:02:30]
Nothing we could find[00:02:32]
There was no place for seeking and hiding[00:02:35]
No time left for us finding[00:02:38]
The worn and whiskey bottles[00:02:41]
As my cold hands[00:02:43]
Drawing crosses on the ground[00:02:45]
Stunted trees growing wild in the pool[00:02:52]
Once summertime swim[00:02:54]
Now shade keeps us cool[00:02:56]
Kunda's baby never got born[00:02:58]
Victory gardens all withered and worn[00:03:00]
And the grass[00:03:02]
Grew yellow and brown[00:03:03]
And the sky wasn't blue[00:03:05]
And at first[00:03:07]
When our radios worked[00:03:09]
We wouldn't believe it was true[00:03:10]
The rags of flowers bloom[00:03:13]
The clouds a living tomb[00:03:16]
And Christmas is coming soon[00:03:18]
Turn gladly back home[00:03:21]
