lyrics

I once had a retarded daughter
She died, but I don't remember when
She took my name upon her headstone, boys
I was a doctor then

Won't you hold my estate sale early, boys
Won't you sell off every seed that I've sewn
I think I'll be losing my mind shortly, boys
Can't remember a single thing I've owned

So here we go, one by one, my whole family, here we go
All my sons, all my grandsons to date
We parade into the sunset, boys
Jimmy is leading the way

So be careful of those who go before you
They have disease you cannot escape
And when the world is fast, when the mind is slow
Let it go, let it go, let it go with grace

You see my mother, she lay upon her deathbed
She could not remember my name
But you will not hold that against her, boys
If I should do the same

Here we go, here we go, all my family, here we go
All my sons, all my grandsons to date
We parade into the sunset, boys
For the doctor James L. Caffee

Six Songs for Lisa
by Avery Burke

supported by 9 fans who also own “JLC”

oh that voice I know so well. I love this album. Navigate is lovely and I like the images in the lyrics that then link to the simple truths of love. Yet the lot have great lyrics. And a vocal from sweet crooning to gentle lows. Not to mention the often enchanting guitar. Erin Bullard

I heard this song on welcome to nightvale years ago and only recently looked into the story behind this song. I sobbed listening to it for the first time after and the connection I feel to this song is unbelievable Asteraceae
