O Nathaniel

Oh Nathaniel, how the days have laid down Like dominos or like moles in the ground I'm mounting the ashes trying to flag a ride No wind blowing down the mountainside I was that kid down on the Georgia line Highballin' swift in the wild sunshine Oh now Nathaniel don't you take it too hard Just lay me down in the old church yard They become clouds and they rain on you Like you're too wet to be dreaming Drink their blood and when they call on you Rise up, rise up, like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Oh Nathaniel put my hammer in my hand I'm gonna meet John and the angel band River rising now, the tide is getting high No wind blowing down the mountainside I was that kid down on the Georgia line Highballin' swift in the wild sunshine Oh now Nathaniel, don't you know you broke my heart Just lay me down in the old church yard They become clouds and they rain on you Like you're too wet to be dreaming Drink their blood and when they call on you Rise up, rise up, like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon Like the moon
