lee mellor – gravedigger blues كلمات اغاني
[verse 1: lee mellor]
in the cold morning pale
the graveyard exhales
the crows through the frozen oaks caw
its breath curls and wreathes
the grey tombstone teeth
uneven in death’s mossy jaw
sweat cakes my shirt
as the spade breaks the dirt
the ground’s beginning to thaw
but i’ll dig in these hills
’till her belly is filled
and my hands are bleeding and raw
[chorus]
i know every tombstone
each name in the mouldering line
i know every tombstone
better than i know this old heart of mine
[verse 2: lee mellor]
stone angels perch
over old mabel church
their faces sullen and dour
and mary mcgraw
died at age twenty-four
her grave is barren of flowers
so every lunch
i steal her a bunch
and i sit with her for half an hour
in some other life
mary, you’ll be my wife
and i’ll build you a garden that towers
[chorus]
[verse 3: lee mellor]
the dread sirens cry
red flashes streak by
i sense that another poor soul
has silently slipped
these gates lick their lips
i tell myself it’s the cold
that these angels and things
are just babies with wings
if horses could sculpt they’d be foals
and there’ll be no rebirth
there’s only the earth
so you might as well keep digging holes
there’ll be no rebirth
there’s only the earth
so you might as well dig a nice hole
