lyrics

Cavallino sat alone in a broken chair
Rusting alive in the Michigan mud somewhere
In a dirty ditch near the side of the road

Turning purple coal into green snow
A dog cowered...A baby cried!
I saw the broken windows of his double wide

Cavallino believed all his father's lies
The old man stuttered hard to describe
Weeping quietly he rolled his last zag
Wiped his mouth with a filthy rag
Smoked that final joint to its last drag
In the shade of a tattered flag

Only Cavalino knows
Wearing second-hand clothes
So alone that he froze

How he lived was lost to the wind
Even angels have to play
To learn to fight another day

When we take that old winding road
That snakes along where the old river flowed
Secrets are hushed deep in the grass
And even shadows are stopped to pass

The taste of blood
The sound of rain
Was there ever an end to his pain?

How will we make it through?

Here’s a pole, a line, a hook and gun for you
Summer heat bakes us to our bones
Bare feet blistered as we’re skipping stones
