about

Just me this time.

lyrics

I miss the scarecrows in the cornrows that used to call out to me
With their minor melodies on stringed things
But they have all left me now
O, they have all left me now

And my father’s fondest wishes were followed out

So where’s that urn of ashes? Does it rest on foreign mantles?
Or has it all been scattered to the wind and to the water?
It seems my memories are somber
And it seems that they’re being forgotten
But the photographs remain and I am haunted
Yr photographs remain and I am haunted

Though you’ve forced me out with your armed forces
And you’ve shortage of sympathy for me

O, you forced me out with your armed forces
