Mt. Egypt - Song For My Father lyrics

Better play that guitar, boy You don't play it no more Play for all that it's worth Who knows what life has in store And things to get harder And then they relent Then they carry on Then they carry on Then they carry on No more midnight rocking For far away champs Ma, I swear I saw him moving But there was nobody there And the morning on the couch At the bottom of the stairs Swore I'll float on down Swore I'll float on down Swore I'll float on down Twenty or so houses Since the first took flight Things first got creepy When the dark southern night North southwest east, creepy Night and over seas Night and over seas Over seas Over seas And I'll scream it aloud Gonna drive it away All this bad air here lurking You know it's been here all day Would have flown in you before And a smile and love As if crying on fire As if crying on fire As if crying on fire I play this guitar For the both of us now I got much work to do We will smile somehow And he knows how much I love him It comes burning right through He can see it in my eyes He can see in my eyes He can see in my eyes
