lyrics

When your father bought that Harley Davison and headed South and headed South. When your father bought that Harley Davidson, and your mama was sleeping on the couch. We messed around. There’s nothing sacred in the summer. Nothing sacred in a laid off town. Nothing keeping that old house up. Waiting for the roof to fall down. We messed around. All night when we were breathing words. The air so heavy and sweet. All night when we were breathing words I heard your mom she never fell asleep. And I thought I heard a prayer once. You said you heard your mother pray once. You said she wasn’t praying now. When your father bought that Harley Davidson and headed South and headed South we messed around.

Winter Seeds
by Virgin of the Birds

Virgin of the Birds are an inspiration. This was the first LP they did, and a few Foghorns appear on the record. Highly highly highly recommend the vinyl. But this is fantastic in any format. The Foghorns
