ballad of lehigh valley - uncles lyrics
i held a dozen deli roses in the kitchen
of our house in the lehigh valley subdivision
where women in low*cut tank tops
do laundry on the rocks where the river meets the lawn
it’s the kind of town you don’t mind coming from
i was younger there, i still stayed my summers there
and i caught a ride in the open
and we parked at the edge of the river
and we threw a cheap necklace in thе water
she said it felt good to watch it go downstrеam
she wants to follow the current
and dip under the foam
our naked bodies will wash up on the shoreline
and we’ll drink up her overtime
time and a half, plus meals and gas
we left our shapes in the grass
on someone’s backyard, on the fourth of july
and we know he can see us, but we all
stay quiet
dinner in a hotel, the glasses on the table
the pennsylvania turnpike was rattling the windows
there was rosacea in her cheeks
it could’ve been the heat
or the glow of the game coming off the tv
where christ plays dice with every football game
he’s on the edge of his seat, up through the two*minute warning
on tired august nights
we listen to the sounds of his linemen colliding
like lovers unbound
and i’ll take my shirt off
she’ll pick me up
she’ll drop me off, and i’m lost
and we’ll drink up her overtime
time and a half, plus meals and gas
we left our shapes in the grass
some things you do find a way of sticking
they leave a fingerprint where you never
think of looking
