Lyrics: Put my best shoes on and meet mother in the kitchen Following sister stomping plastic Empty milk gallon graveyard, recycling rockstar Soldiers of the lord Stare out my window at the neighbours at night Serpentine explanations for why I stayed out of sight Rosemary Robinson, my stars and my sun Hannah and I in the cemetery aisles overcome with belief That everything we'd eat Was good and clean We'd spit our seeds Gonna make this garden grow Inch by inch and row by row Row by row Early winter morning, Mo puts on the coffee Making records in my bedroom Tin foil in the heat vents Get high in the basement Sing into my mouth Perched on the counter in our shorts and our socks Share a smoke on the sofa and blow a kiss to the cops Here, help me move the kitchen table aside Heaven Hill in the freezer for the bags stamped beneath our eyes Opened miles wide And all we'd seen Was gold and green Gonna make this garden grow Inch by inch and row by row Row by row
this is one of these songs that instantly made me smile at the first listen. thanks guys, my gf broke up with me yesterday and this is the only thing that cheered me up
this version of this song is very good, i love it. but the live acoustic version from little elephant is literally my all time favorite acoustic song ever, ever. i would pay a lot of money for a hard copy of the audio from that performance to listen to in the car.
