Sadie White coat You carry me home And bury this bone And take this pinecone
Bury this bone To gnaw on it later, gnaw on the telephone 'Till then, we pray and suspend The notion that these lives do never end
And all day long we talk about mercy Lead me to water Lord, I sure am thirsty Down in the ditch where I nearly served you Up in the clouds where he almost heard you
And all that we built And all that we beeathed And all that we spilt Or pulled up like weeds Is piled up in back And it burns irrevocably
We spoke up in turns 'Till the silence crept over me
Bless you And I deeply do No longer resolute And I call to you
But the water go so cold And you do lose What you don't hold
This is an old song These are old blues And this is not my tune But it's mine to use And the seabirds Where the fear once grew Will flock with a fury And they will bury What'd come for you
And down where I darn with the milk-eyed mender You and I, and a love so tender Is stretched-on the hoop where I stitch-this addage "Bless her house and her heart so savage."
And all that I want And all that I need And all that I've got Is scattered like seed And all that I knew Is moving away from me
And all that I know Is blowing like tumbleweed
And the mealy worms In the brine will burn In a salty pyre Among the fauns and ferns
And the love we hold And the love we spurn Will never grow cold Only taciturn
And I'll tell you tomorrow Oh Sadie, go on home now And bless those who've sickened below And bless us who have chosen so
And all that I've got And all that I need I tie in a knot And I lay at your feet And I have not forgot But a silence crept over me
