"Everything's Alright Mama" lyrics

Carbon Leaf Lyrics

"Everything's Alright Mama"

Time will take these bones from me
Everything's alright mama
And weave them to Earth's tapestry
Everything's alright

The child is father to the man
Everything's alright mama
That gum you like won't come back again
Everything's alright

The sigh
The sigh

I've hit the wall on all the old things
Everything's alright mama
The ways don't feel the same - it's hard to describe
Everything's alright

The dark drips down as if it was coffee
Everything's alright mama
Caterpillars came and ate the house away
Everything's alright

The sky!
The sky!
The sky!

I won't be caught the gaffe in plaid
Everything's alright mama
The hunting ground surrounds you lad
Everything's alright

The sun comes up, hold me close
Everything's alright mama
Lower me with ropes I'm facing the sky
Everything's alright

The sky!
The sky!
The sky!

A squirrel was trapped inside the gutter
Everything's alright mama
I heard it scratch and I pried it open
Everything's alright
(Everything's alright)
Everything's alright
(Everything's alright)
Everything's alright
(Everything's alright)

The sky! (The sky!)
The sky! (The sky!)
The sky! (The sky!)
The sky! (The sky!)
Oh!
