Gossip in the Grain - Ray LaMontagne

Such the lazy jackstraw

Always late for tea

Never bothers to ring lately

Says the silly sparrow

There's gossip in the grain

Have you heard the oh you don't say

Someday

Someday

A snow shall fill the trees

You'd best to make warm the eves

Grown callous is the old crow

He'd mock even the sun

Eyes as black as blood

Bone crack in the craw

He'd say

He'd say

Always a never mind

Always a never mind

Truth be

The beggar that holds his tongue

Dines on none but air alone
