Brass Sky

Brass Sky - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I gotta bent up truck gotta fix it up

So I set it on the backyard lawn

Put the radio loud in the window

I tuned it into rock

Now I'm patiently waitin' on music

But the DJ rambled and sang

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

A bright eyed woman on the hour

Brings a glass of tea

I like tell she's as pretty as a flower

When she comes to me

She winds away the water

From my eyes and soothes my brain

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

There's fear in the sky

A big storm is what it means

Waitin' out the weather

By

Workin' on the truck

We get to hang out together

Can't believe this luck

Glass is fine by the hour

But don't match with mine

It got wrecked playin' sailor in the shower

Last christmas time

The song's written in another language

But the weather forecast is plain

It was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

Well it's a bad day for flyin'

But they won't fly with me

Ahha soa

Starin' at the boats and planes

Stayin' on the ground

Another won't leave it's hidin'

'Til the wind turns 'round

A bright eyed woman in the kitchen

Cooks kiss death

Boilin' up mango crab and coconut

And includin' cinnamon bread

But drops the pan and says

Paranoia is out and breeds like a runaway train

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

Saaa

Pay pay flyin' me

Won't fly with me no

Aaaa saw

Starin' at the boats and planes

Stayin' on the ground

Another leave it's hidin'

'Til the wind turns 'round
