Lyrics
In This Sleeping Town
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.
Swing upon a rope
Watching crickets fly
Wishing on a poison well
See the red dust rise
Day in, day out
When the sun goes down
Day in, day out
And the moon comes round
Day in, day out...
Everybody knows,
But no one ever says a word
In this sleeping town
Little girl loves a backdoor man
And her father cries
Until the water rises high enough
Until his virtue dies, watch it die
Day in, day out
When the sun goes down
Day in, day out
And the moon comes round
Day in, day out...
Everybody knows,
But no one ever says a word
In this sleeping town
And under a crown of thorns
He deigned no reply
And the mob of reckless lust
Began to fade before his eyes
Day in, day out
When the sun goes down
Day in, day out
And the moon comes round
Day in, day out...
Everybody knows,
But no one ever says a word
In this sleeping town
