Lyrics
Roots Of My Hair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wet is my whistle
Wandering wayward
Trouser is caught in a thorny bramble
Sun soon be slipping
Down spine of the meadow
Swamp candle flower
A watery fellow
The monarch's my right hand
Left is the sparrow
Twilight blue my bone and marrow
The river's path is old and narrow
First evening star
To comfort the scarecrow
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Marveling over dead branches
Wind in the grasses
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere
Pull me up by the roots of my hair
Into the rosy atmosphere...
Marveling over dead branches
Marveling over dead branches
Into the rosy atmosphere
Into the rosy atmosphere
