Country Comfort

Available on the album tumbleweed connection

Soon the pines will be falling everywhere

Village children fight each other for a share

And the 6:09 goes roaring past the creek

Deacon lee prepares his sermon for next week

I saw grandma yesterday down at the store

Well she's really going fine for eighty four

Well she asked me if sometime Id fix her barn

Poor old girl she needs a hand to run the farm

And its good old country comfort in my bones

Just the sweetest sound my ears have ever known

Just an old-fashioned feeling fully-grown

Country comforts in a truck thats going home

Down at the well theyve got a new machine

The foreman says it cuts man-power by fifteen

Yeah but that ain't natural well

So old clay would say

You see hes a horse-drawn man until his dying day

Now the old fat goose is flying cross the sticks

The hedgehogs done in clay between the bricks

And the rocking chairs creaking on the porch

Across the valley moves

The herdsman with his torch
