zoe mulford - fox grapes lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
we’re going down to the garden state
where the sand is the color of the license plates
down to my grandparents’ house on the lake
it’s the end of the summer so you know what to take

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
[verse]
load up the buckets and the dish pans too
and pile them all in the old canoe
paddle to the place where the creek flows down
the nettles and the cat briars growing all around

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow

[verse]
you can pick ’em from the bank, you can pick ’em from the boat
you can drop ’em in the water and away they’ll float
wild as a muskrat[?], round as a ball
they taste of the summer as it turns into fall

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow

[verse]
and if we find just a few good vines
we’ll be home with our harvest by suppertime
muddy and wet and scratched and stung
and sore in the arms and purple in the tongue
[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow

[verse]
smush up the grapes in a clean old sheet
the kitchen smells all wild and sweet
boil up the juice and skim off the scum
and we’ll have jelly when the winter comes

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow

[verse]
toil and sweat and countless hours
and it all boils down into six little jars
still we’ll say it was worth it all
for the taste of the summer as it turns into fall

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
[verse]
so load up the buckets and don’t delay
the grapes are gone by labor day
if you go when the season’s done
you can look all you like and you won’t find a one

[chorus]
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
bring along a bucket ’cause we’re all gonna go
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
up on the creek where the fox grapes grow
