  • Mmm
    Mmm

    I will see you off now down the back of the ridge
    There's just something that I got to show you
    There is domer and there's rot and the common case
    It ain't nothin' what you say is true

    With your long arms, try and just give some time
    Presently, it does include my dues
    Ain't your standard premonitions, all this phallic repetition
    Boy, you tell yourself a tale or two

    Man like you
    Man, improve

    Well, I know that we set off for a common place
    And the lines have run too deep
    How much caring is there of some American love
    When there's lovers sleeping in our streets?

    So Cerberus Ride! Bring those dead alive
    Like Pirate Jenny on the Black Freighter
    It'll be a long day of fixing, make something else your mission
    Boy, why this shit so hard to cue?

    Man like you
    How you do? Writer/s: Bruce Hornsby, Christopher Messina, Justin Vernon, Naeem Hanks
