We took a car, we took a train And every little bit O every little bit Was both the same The streets were gravelly and cracked The sun spread blisters on our backs My brother warned me: "Next town up, I think it's full of savages!" We used our thumbs and traded names And all the faces then, Or at least most of them, Them seemed the same We woke up to the sun when it had gotten unavoidable Our empty satchels silent and our stomachs crumbling And oh how we can't win We'll pull through I'm sure We saw the roof tops on a slope No sign of power lines We ran through dandelions And our feet smoked "I think I smell a feast", I yelled My brother transfixed by the smell Said nothing, but his parted lips Said he was in a corn We heard the sound of violins Our hunger fiercely now piecing in paramount To common sense A spitted goat was smoking Music rousing and provoking And our tired feet felt strength on wine, And made to move once more And oh how enchanting We'll leave here full for sure And waking while the village slept, We made each little step Oh every little step, Was our secret From house to house we filled our bags With all the music their town had We snuck songs from their sleeping arms And from under their hands We took a car, we took a train And all the way we sang And all the way we sang their songs We left that village silent But for christenings and dying's But our family and friends Have danced for days since we returned And oh how we danced and.... We'll be a hit for sure
