lyrics

I have been halfway hoping my whole life, praying on a silent spring
May calls to June, hanging out her window, across the street on Rosemary Lane
There is a new crime rolling through Brushtown,
Carmel marble-suede Coupe DeVille
My mama said, best to keep a watch out, a watch out and stay on the hill
A watch out and stay on the hill

Their moonstones hide in the front yard, diamonds in the back by the will
Papas gone to pray, makes me work on Sunday, and mama and sis at the mill
They rolled like lightning and thunder
They packed their wagons to fill
Said I’m here for your riches, I’m here for your plunder
Ride on this lifes a thrill, ride on this lifes a thrill

We were rundown all across Brushtown
Yellow flashes green and we go
Moses took a bullet, laid down that Sunday and Abraham he won’t make it home
You will be hanged at Smiths in September, you will be laid down outside alone
A voice called to me, son what spell are you under
Go not you won't make it home

My mama said, best to keep a watch out, a watch out and stay on the hill
