Will Oldham - SONG OF MOST lyrics

I knew what I wanted to do

when I was only three years old

but then they came for the flame

for all the sables o ye doe-hoo

and I found one brace of gold

where I had laid it all the same

but when ye never knew

what fun would do

say hey on the way

chorus:

they said that we would have this solved

the bay's a doll

and we was all a cable'd on

the door was flung awide

and fling t'as fled to fling the tide

but we were set

we didn't have to day'o

we'd a way-o

and shake the sides until

we held upon a biggun daddy

hates to, the song fail on

the gable

ah ee stood ape-hole

chorus

(inst.)

for mind what had it duh

nye was fed and led upon

a coaly lane of all as hauled

to lay it for the bay hoo

chorus
