lyrics

I was born on this farm
My father was a blind man
A former moonshining man
And my sisters, they live in the stars
They come around once a year in the dark

Did you see me in the trees?
I was counting all the leaves
I was dreaming of foreign lands
With my toes tucked in the sand
So bittersweet

I was born on this farm
My mother, bless her heart
We buried her all alone in the side yard
My brother he lives behind bars
He looks for God inside of the concrete walls

And I was just in the trees
I was counting up all the leaves
I was dreaming of foreign lands
With my toes tucked in the sand
So bittersweet
