lyrics

I’d been rebuilding transmissions in Morgantown
When Richard pulled me aside.
He said “Son, you’re not young,
But you’ve still got plenty of time.”

“I’ve got abandoned Bounty land outside Bennington.
It’s yours if you keep the place up.
Water got in ‘76
But it’s a roof and a bed and it’s quiet enough.”

I tossed out my Carolina clothes,
And Richard gave me his boots.
When we got to the top of Dorsey Knot,
He said “This could be good for you.”

“I spent some time there myself, chasing off ghosts,
When I first got back home from Cam Lộ.
I don’t know what you’ve been through but it’s usually true
There’s time enough to atone.”

So I hitchhiked through Bedford, Tipton, Tyronne,
Spent September in Hudson.
I reached Richard’s cabin before the first snow
And got to mending the rafters.
