Kevin Pakulis: Music

MOTHER'S DAY

I PICKED A SPOT BY THE RIVER
THREE FINGERS 'FORE SUNDOWN
HOBBLED THE HORSES IN SOME GRASS NEAR THE
CANYON WALL
BUILT A FIRE TOOK MY KNIFE TO THE SNAKE THAT SOMEHOW
CROSSED MY PATH
WHEN IT COUNTED MOST OF ALL

I WRITE THIS LETTER WITH THE FIRE LIGHT
DANCIN' ON MY BUCKSKIN
I'M BEING WATCHED I CAN FEEL IT
AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU
TO YOUR ADVANTAGE YOU LEFT THE BAG O' BONES
YOU WERE STUCK IN
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN AND HOW ARE YOU DOIN'

SOMETIMES I SEE
YOU TICKLIN' THE LEAVES OF THE OAK TREES
SOMETIMES I SEE YOU PAINT CIRCLES
'ROUND THE MOON
I'M GETTIN' GOOD
AT GETTIN' WHAT I DON'T SEE
YOU AND ME ALWAYS IN TUNE

IT'S BACK DOWN TO THE CITY IN THE MORNING
'CAUSE I HAVE TO
IT AIN'T SO EASY IN THE CITY TRYIN' TO
FEEL THIS STUFF
HELL I DON'T MIND
AND I CAN'T IMAGINE YOU DO
I'LL BE WITH YOU SOON ENOUGH
