Beat the Reaper

[00:10.66] Country home company's coming today
[00:16.02] Oh no, it's the weekend, I think I'll go away
[00:21.29] Usually it's quiet, but it's always alive
[00:26.43] And when it rains, it never rains unless we're all inside
[00:32.35] Beat the reaper, it's a long way home
[00:37.44] Could I ever think leaving you (leaving you)
[00:42.28] Alone-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[00:47.53] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[00:52.72] Spend a day with MDA in a field by the pond
[00:58.04] Sippin' tea, I'm glad it's me, this is where I belong
[01:03.40] Sunset from the bathroom was different every day
[01:08.79] We knew we'd someday be up there, it didn't really matter which way
[01:14.67] Beat the reaper, it's a long way home
[01:19.82] Could I ever think leaving you (leaving you)
[01:24.43] Alone-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[01:29.63] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[01:34.91] Smokin' or drinkin' or playin' guitars
[01:40.29] We'd sing the night away, writing songs to the stars
[01:45.21] And gradually all the coloured lights would fly from our heads
[01:50.63] We'd been waitin' for the morning light, so we could go to bed
[01:56.27] Beat the reaper, it's a long way home
[02:01.35] Could I ever think leaving you (leaving you)
[02:06.02] Alone-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[02:11.12] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[02:16.58] Balthazar is in the yard, and he's diggin' it too
[02:21.79] I got a bone from the butcher shop, and he's learned how to chew
[02:26.90] Jerry and Abbey, not hearing a word
[02:32.23] They think that groups should be seen and not heard
[02:37.86] Beat the reaper, it's a long way home
[02:43.06] Could I ever think leaving you (leaving you)
[02:47.89] Alone-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[02:52.73] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[02:58.08] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[03:03.18] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[03:08.56] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[03:13.73] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[03:19.13] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[03:24.05] Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
[03:29.37] Da-da-da-da
