Six Or Seven Lyrics

Wore through a pair of shorts again

Rocks in the river seem to tear their thread

It's to the city now to buy some clothes

Pass the lake through a limb of cloves



Brown grass, acorns, and an old, old tree

I listened to Mr. Barry sing songs to me

My brother was born there in late July

He was screamin' from the bedroom where he almost died











Oh please don't fall on us

We've done no wrong

Just let us pass this once

And get to the river, no it won't be long



An old black dog brought in a tick again

Well I killed it in the kitchen and the floor turned red

We came back here from the swimmin' hole

He was barkin' at a rebel trying to kill the colds



Oh please don't fall on us

We've done no wrong

Just stand your ground this once

And we'll get through the winter, no it won't be long



Found my faith on that mountain side

And grandpa heard it, well he filled with pride

Any reason to celebrate when times get hard

Well I'm savin' all my money to buy baseball cards
