Peppertree

[00:09.46] When they march me down the road, so
[00:11.53] When them ride me down the road, tho
[00:14.56] Mahogany with the gold trim, silent except for children cryin'
[00:19.04] They never even knew him, then trumpets flyin', the bearers shinin'
[00:22.71] Shoes sink in the wet ground, horns vying, sun rising
[00:25.97] The pit lying and waitin' like a clever lion, mouth gapin'
[00:28.98] And after they ate, chicken, rice, peas, sticky cake
[00:32.62] The chillens laughing and playin', forgot they placе
[00:35.09] Plates and dishes piled and washеd as women whisper
[00:37.96] Men talk circles
[00:43.21] When them ride me down, so
[00:45.33] When them take me down, so
[00:47.41] Bent backed over Wray & Nephew, marijuana cigars, hidden hearts
[00:52.27] A dark road carved, the blackness stretch like tar
[00:55.49] Dogs beg for scraps at the edge of the hearth
[00:58.19] But it's something else out there in the dark
[01:00.30] Something else out there in the dark
[01:02.92] Something else out there where you are, something else out there
[01:06.94] When them bring me up the road, so
[01:10.19] When them take me up the road, so
[01:13.36] Peppertree wave over me tombstone
[01:16.75]
