《Old Virginia Block》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Virginia Block - Devon Sproule

[00:00:16] If my ears hear a sigh of a shiny red violin

[00:00:21] Clear by the Rivanna down in the Blue Ridge

[00:00:26] By the dog bags and trash

[00:00:29] By the bottles and cans

[00:00:31] And the dead beat brown grass

[00:00:34] And the pattern in the Blue Ridge

[00:00:37] Then my home must be around another good old virginia block

[00:00:47] If my ears hear a note on the cello

[00:00:51] So low

[00:00:52] Then a double stopping bow

[00:00:55] From my headphones

[00:00:57] In the Blue Ridge

[00:00:58] Out walking at noon

[00:01:00] Appearing under the white of the daytime moon

[00:01:03] Keeping my big blue balloon in my tight fist

[00:01:07] In the Blue Ridge

[00:01:08] Then my home must be around another good old virginia block

[00:01:29] If my ears hears the sound of a slate rock on the ground

[00:01:34] Clicking the drops of the rain coming down

[00:01:37] Along a front walk

[00:01:38] In the Blue Ridge

[00:01:40] The rim of dirt on the brim of a brow

[00:01:42] The skin of sweat on the handle of a plow

[00:01:45] Miles and miles of tobacco in the south

[00:01:48] From a back road

[00:01:49] In the Blue Ridge

[00:01:50] Then my home must be around another good old virginia block

[00:01:58] Well

[00:01:58] I've got family in Canada

[00:02:01] Family in New York

[00:02:04] I've got friends in every other place I've played

[00:02:09] But I can't keep from planting all my plans of family stuff

[00:02:15] Down between the weeds in the red dirt clay

[00:02:19] Where my ears hears a hundred bees riding that udwarding breeze

[00:02:24] A veil and a bucket by a pair of oak trees

[00:02:27] Just another blonde kid

[00:02:29] In the Blue Ridge

[00:02:30] It's all to make a pattern of love

[00:02:32] To roost a lava field of white doves

[00:02:35] With just a pitchfork and a pair of thick gloves

[00:02:38] For your whole life in the Blue Ridge

[00:02:41] The pick up and go

[00:02:43] The bent back and the grunt-chicked coal

[00:02:45] The gleam of your white underclothes

[00:02:49] In my back seat

[00:02:50] In the Blue Ridge

[00:02:51] The pile of bacon by a couple fried eggs

[00:02:53] Kiss marks and hearts on a picnic table leg

[00:02:56] The quartet fretting on up in my head

[00:02:59] On my long walk

[00:03:00] Through the Blue Ridge

[00:03:02] And my home comes up around another good old Virginia block
