Pine for Cedars Lyrics

She might be wearing a green chemise

And a hat that she bought 'cause it matches her jeans

And the water she drinks well it comes from a stream

By the house she might win in that hospital lottery



And I might be stumbling and cursing them all

When she picks me up from the place that we both call

disaster relief

For the rent must be paid by the first of the month

Or in my case, 15th



This is good as far as I can tell

It's still heavy as hell when it's good

And I do like the road

But I'd be better at home

I will pine for the oak streets

And pine for the cedars and you



Been around I suppose

I have chatted and chewed

I have lugged my guitar to the nice cafe blues

And when I come home I am coming home to this street

and these avenues



This is good but as far as I can tell

It's still heavy as hell when it's good

And I do like the road

But I'd be better at home

I will pine for the oak streets

And pine for the cedars and you
