lyrics

on a covered porch
miles from here
I will make my stand
you can steel the weather vein
and burn the barn
things won’t go as planned

my skin is tight
my knuckles firm
my teeth bared to the sky
it’s dusk and my breath
steams this farm land
I’m not afraid to die

there’s always someone
poised for attack
it’s good to have someone
to watch your back
but just make sure you’re triumphant
before this movie fades to black
and even if you take a bullet
make sure the audience knows you had to do it

the felt on the brim of my hat
discoloured and hardened by rain
keeps me focussed true
the sound of a hoedown
your red hair
and the fireflies
will stop me feeling blue

I’ve not yet built the life I could
but I’ll defend what little I’ve made
my shirt sleeves rolled,
put a shoulder to the cold
the battle turf is laid
