Lyrics

Grass Canons

What if we wore our stripes in the sky

On a clear day you can see the flags from miles away

Cloud shadows stretched several states

And bubbling music seemed to fill the highways

And the towns

That day

Grass canons - they will fill the air

Turning mountainside grey into blue
