lirik lagu the holy modal rounders - spring of '65

i woke up one morning in the spring of ’65
considering myself lucky to be found alive
i hitched up my horses, my business to pursue
instead of hauling four loads i only hauled two

i’d had my fill of plowing before the sun was high
the sunshine made my head feel strange, it was an honest try
so, i unhitched my mule and saddled up my mare
and rode down to the grocery to see what’s doin’ there

now farmin’ folk for miles around were gathered in the store
each saying that he never left his plow so soon bеfore
while talkin’ of the mystеry of god’s unfolding will
old man hawkins brought a load of whiskey from his still

now most of us had never drunk so early in the day
but, since today was special, we got drunk anyway
we got so drunk and crazy that we all did agree
to meet that very night where the fiddle was to be

the night was clear as crystal, the moon was full and bright
and nothing look familiar in that pale, unearthly light
there was no wind, no calling birds, in fact it was so still
i scarcely drew a breath till i reached old laurel hill

i’ll tell you of our party and how it did commence
when four of us jolly boys got on the floor to dance
the fiddler being willing, his arms being strong
he played the crippled kingfisher about four hours long
i see the morning star boys, i guess we danced enough
we’ll spend another hour in paying cash for cuff
we’ll go to our plows, we’ll whistle and we’ll sing
we never shall be guilty of another such a thing

come all you newsy women who gather news about
don’t tell no tales upon us, we’re bad enough without
don’t tell no tales upon us and kick up any fuss
you been guilty of the same thing, perhaps a whole lot worse
