Heir of my body buddy beware of my song
Or have we lost thee to the brutal years to come icy fields or the razor’s sum
Idly binded like the grandsons of Custer or Khan
Wield ye fortune or has greatness our way come weird generation
A weary man slept hard by the sea
Smoking and pondering the granary
Father came too to the call of arms
While winking sisters sold our last farm
Little minnow what waters have you swam
Do you hear horsemen or the swarm of North Vietnam
Born of liquor be relieved of your penchant to scam
Lay low baby take fear to hearts on the lam
Westward they moved with the centuries armed
Ran out of town sold his guitar
Half starved and crazy living in squalor
While winking sisters sold our last farm
Does blood bear the poison or forebear the heart attack
Beware of obsession suffer brave though you may lack
You’re mine you’re mine
Be not the pursuer of crystal cheap wine or smack
Rail at the abuser no matter how the chips are stacked
Son of a man held proud in the sun
While your first flight here landed and up you were brung
Somewhere in the stacks your star is slung
Now your wanderings begun your songs being sung

Jim, I'm loving this album! Sounds so good. I don't think the pedal steel was on the last versions of these tracks I heard. It's great! Kudos on a lovely record. Ben Armstrong
