Loading...

i had a thought i’d like to be
in a house of cheese and wine on 17th
i’d make friends and company
with the local bourgeoisie
and wouldn’t mind

but something brings me back here
to this plainish life of work and words and beer
once my father told me, son
you were made to fall back home
and there you are

so i won’t apologize for lacking glory
i will ring my copper bell and not be sorry
and if all i have to tell is a simple story
well, i’ve seen beauty as it was
that’s without worry

the rich and fancy folk i’ve come to meet
they end up boring me to death before they speak
and i’ll certainly concede
they can’t shake life like me
not if they tried

so i won’t apologize for lacking glory
i will ring my copper bell and not be sorry
and if all i have to tell is a simple story
well i’ve seen beauty as it was
that’s without worry
and now i’ll say it proud
it’s comforting somehow
that i’ve been given all the lot i’ve been allowed
