Sleep Song

Somewhere by the water's edge
 I found out what nearby meant
 Somewhere off the railroad tracks
 I learned how to drink the line
 We threw it all in the train
 And hit the the pipe in the back
 Vanilla lingers from Captain and the name it stays
 The others thought I was sick
 I stumbled out in the dark
 And then I found corruption and it hurt my heart
 ♪
 Lady span the seas with grace
 And keep us feeling full
 The cabins that would house our games
 Were quiet when I came
 Let's take a run to the horse
 And then we'll smoke some tabac
 I see a couple of portraits
 And the name it stays
 A little island away
 Is where I gathered my leaves
 And then I found corruption
 And the name it stays
 ♪
 Fire and ashes in a wooden place
 Where the boats are for staking claims
 Guns and stories for the weak at heart
 And a guitar that you can't play
 The tunes grow old and the dead won't die
 We've got marriage on our minds
 I write my name on the cabin wall
 And its christened with lies
