Murder in the City - The Avett Brothers
If I get murdered in the city
Don’t go revengin’ in my name
One person dead from such is plenty
No need to go get locked away
When I leave your arms
The things that I think of
No need to get over alarmed
I’m comin’ home
I wonder which brother is better
Which one our parents love the most
I sure did get in lots of trouble
They seemed to let the other go
A tear fell from my father’s eyes
I wondered what my dad would say
He said I love you
And I’m proud of you both, in so many different ways
If I get murdered in the city
Go read the letter in my desk
Don’t worry with all my belongings
But pay attention to the list
Make sure my sister knows I loved her
Make sure my mother knows the same
Always remember, there is nothing worth sharing
Like the love that let us share our name
Always remember, there is nothing worth sharing
Like the love that let us share our name
The brain soup of a geek girl who doesn't know how to smile, adores her ewok, and is figuring things out one cup of tea at a time.
Wow, good lyrics!
ReplyDeleteHow I love the Avett Brothers. Their plain and simple but stirring voices, their beautiful lyrics, their awesome guitar work. "I And Love And You" is one of my favorites, too. What a cool title that would be for a book. Just sticking my head in after a day of big fat zeroes. Back to the drawing board tomorrow.
