Are on a train from New York
Wearing new hats
Shooting the shit
Deep in the heart of Dutchess County, Bounty
And all the evening breakdowns
Will soon be washed from their hands
The next very day, as they make way
Eating the apple to the chapel, Holy
Don't even try, they'll get away with murder
Sure as the rain washes away and brings thunder
Oh tell me you can see it
The gentle tower rising
Over the pines, out of a book
Zion mistaken for the state of Millbrook
The boys and girls of Millbrook Are on a train from New York Wearing new hats Shooting the shit Deep in the heart of Dutchess County, Bounty And all the evening breakdowns Will soon be washed from their hands The next very day, as they make way Eating the apple to the chapel, Holy Don't even try, they'll get away with murder Sure as the rain washes away and brings thunder Oh tell me you can see it The gentle tower rising Over the pines, out of a book Zion mistaken for the state of Millbrook Explain Request ×
