Red Paint

You’re bringing the bar up Life’s not plastic forks and paper cups A mind certainly can make A heavy weight We’ll set all things straight Hands and red paint Let’s make some stains Let’s make some stains Getting dark Hands and red paint Let’s make a mark All of these years You’ve brought me here You’ve brought me here I thank you All of these years That we’ve cut through Some parts never taught Climbing fences, sleeping on roof tops While so many things I see are sugar fed Still rocks, bricks, and lead Hands and red paint Let’s make some stains Let’s make some stains Getting dark Hands and red paint Let’s make a mark Let’s make life so big Make sure can’t be missed I’ll carry all these days for months and for years I’ll listen, you’ll hear (All these days for months and for years I’ll listen, you’ll hear) Hands and red paint Let’s make some stains Let’s make some stains Getting dark Hands and red paint Let’s make a mark
