[00:12.71]older brother, restless soul, lie down
[00:18.60]lie for a while with your ear against the earth
[00:24.30]and you'll hear your sister sleep talking say
[00:27.45]"your hair is long but not long enough to reach home to me
[00:36.43]but your beard someday might be"
[00:42.85]and she'll wake up in a cold sweat on the floor
[00:48.56]next to a family portrait drawn when you were four
[00:54.67]and beside a jar of two cent coins that are no good no more
[01:03.22]she'll lay it aside
[01:16.46]older father, weary soul, you'll drive
[01:22.44]back to the home you made on the mountainside
[01:28.29]with that ugly, terrible thing
[01:31.13]those papers for divorce and a lonely ring
[01:36.68]a lonely ring
[01:40.26]sit on your porch
[01:42.98]and pluck your strings
[01:46.93]and you'll find somebody you can blame
[01:52.68]and you'll follow the creek that runs out into the sea
[02:00.53]and you'll find the peace of the Lord.
[02:26.34]grandfather, weary soul,  you'll fly
[02:32.26]over your life once more before you die
[02:38.47]since our grandma passed away
[02:41.08]you've waited for forever and a day
[02:46.63]just to die
[02:50.14]and someday soon
[02:53.18]you will die
[02:55.67]it was the only woman you ever loved
[03:02.14]that got burnt by the sun too often when she was young
[03:08.33]and the cancer spread and it ran into her body and her blood
[03:14.61]and there's nothing you can do about it now
