And your family on the left
We got married in a single bed
And sang shaker hymns
When your war horse grandfather had sung
The whole damn Song of Solomon
We toasted health in front room
We whiled away the afternoon
My flower struck down in sickness
Your medicine man's got his face in a book
Small bottles and the trees in green England
Not one of them will do my love no good
In the morning I'm light
But in the evening, I'm heavy now
Try as I might I just can't keep it steady now
My love
My family on the right hand side And your family on the left We got married in a single bed And sang shaker hymns When your war horse grandfather had sung The whole damn Song of Solomon We toasted health in front room We whiled away the afternoon My flower struck down in sickness Your medicine man's got his face in a book Small bottles and the trees in green England Not one of them will do my love no good In the morning I'm light But in the evening, I'm heavy now Try as I might I just can't keep it steady now My love Explain Request ×
