lyrics

River flow on
Flow on, God’s grace upon you
My country’s been
Won without warring
A water run
Hair of the dog this morning

Before the thunder rolls

Has someone else
Been crushed by strangers’ sadness
I’m whistling on
While suff’ring losses
Swinging my hook
Down on all fours, swimming

Before the thunder rolls

I thought I was
Conversing with the era
Out in the sticks
Caged bird gone feral
The way it’s gone
All’s quiet as a feather

Until the thunder rolls

A giant wreck
Not yet brimstone and fire
Chuckle that chokes
Ha-hara-kiri
Ash smokes to dust
My soul in hallowed lyre

Before the thunder rolls

crystal-clear sound.
