Orchard Park

Up at dawn and on the highway

Mom asleep against the window

Light is breaking through

I hum a song to keep me company

I swear to God I heard you hum the same tune

If you wanted to I think you could've been a singer

I got it from you

Switch on the radio at dansville

I comb the static signal looking for the news

I found the frequency for sports talk

All the callers lining up to sing the blues

I heard this sammy kid is supposed to be something special

I hope he is

I hope he is

I spread your ashes in orchard park

In the creek beyond the east wall

So I know where you are

Come november when I'm screaming at my tv in the dark

You're screaming with me from orchard park

Mom and I laugh on the way home

She says she's got a black thumb

All the house plants met their doom

But she still tends to your tomatoes

Says the garden's looking healthy

She's already seeing blooms

I don't got much to lose

But I keep close to my chest

The things I still do

I spread your ashes in orchard park

In the creek beyond the east wall

So I know where you are

Come november when I'm screaming at my tv in the dark

You're screaming with me from orchard park

I heard this sammy kid is supposed to be something special

I heard this sammy kid is supposed to be something special

I heard this sammy kid is supposed to be something special

I hope he is
