Lyrics
Song: I Want For No Blues
Tin man, scarecrow
And the cowardly lion
Meet everyday
At little Dot’s Diner
Day old newspaper
Tells it so true
the war on the mountain
Is far from through
Buildings do crumble
They fall apart
We walk away
With concrete hearts
Little girls and boys
Are home before dark
fingerpainted angels
On the city’s postcards
Chorus:
I will remember
The battle and the truce
I will always love you
I want for no blues
Parish of St. John’s
The rooster crows
A brother in the belfry
his eyes on the road
moving congregation
gathers for the show
broken little pieces
need glue for the soul
a star’s like a scar
never goes away
wonderment and love
and forgotten hate
a far sound a sweet sound
of a violin
the night drains empty
another day begins
Chorus
