owen beverly - absolom lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
sometimes when the earth makes a pillow
beneath the glow of a harvest moon
i’ve heard of a voice in the willows
whistling an old familiar tune
and on its way through arkansas
and down from tennessee
a voice blown on the winter wind
whispered words to me:

[chorus]
“and on me, on me
rides hard times and trouble”

[verse 2]
now it takes a man of superstition
to find cause for suspicion in a weathervane
but i’ve seen men speak with fire and conviction
silence at the sound of this refrain:
“and i was thеre when david’s son
was cut down from a tree
and on the lips of absolom
a brеath has set me free”
[chorus]
“and on me, on me
rides hard times and trouble”

[bridge]
caught by the hair
laid down in the open air
born from the mouth of absolom

[chorus]
“and on me, on me
rides hard times and trouble
and on me, on me
rides hard times and trouble”
