Where the creek runs shallow and sandy
The moon swoops over the stars
------- straight into my arms
Im going to get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on its grave
Dance on his grave
Its a long time coming
A long time coming my dear
But now its here
My daddy was a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
When I was a kid
He was just somebody Id see around
Somebody Id see around
Its a long time coming
A long time coming my dear
But now its here
Down below and pulling on my shirt
I got some kids of my own
But if I had one wish kids
That your mistakes would be your own
Your sins would be your own
Its a long time coming
A long time coming my dear
But now its here
I am laying under the arms of cassiopeia
The sword of orion sweeps
Its me and you rosie
Crackling like crossed wires
I listen to you breathing in your sleep
The sparks of the fire are left burning
Lie 2 kids in sleeping bags
I reach under your shirt and feel your belly
Theres another one kicking inside
I promise I aint going to fuck it up this time
