Pete Francis - Father Rose lyrics

Father Rose when they told him Your son's been stolen He's under there kicking his feet His heart steeps in salt-water dreams One August night watching the harbor fade He told a girl a secret he had saved He said, Look up, Look up the moon is a ship's keel That's my daddy's boat, he's up there spinning his wheel And so another day fades and i begin to watch this horizon burn Father Rose when they told him Your son's been stolen He's under there kickin' his sheets His heart steeps in salt-water dreams Now he's downstairs kissing the bottle While mama's tappin' the bible Through the doors I can hear her prayers She cries, Gimme a little more Won't you gimme a little more Out of him One August night watching the harbor fade He told a girl a secret he had saved He said I'm alone, like a bouy Miles, miles from shore Nobody take my direction anymore Father Rose when they told him Your son's been stolen He's under there kicking his sheets His heart steeps in salt-water dreams Father Rose when they told him Your son's been stolen He's under there kicking his feet His heart steeps in salt-water dreams
