Van Dyke Parks - Widow's Walk lyrics

rate me

Widows walk ado walk on

As in years of yore

The thought of you divided thus

It just maybe due

To discuss in cold turkey

Mourning in the willows

Or was it the wind

You recollect we all suspect

The mortal door will open the sore mind

The widows walk

And wail among the willows

Widows walk ado walk on

Widows face the future

Factories face the poor

The fact remains the peril

Strains the mind a bit

To have done and quit

With it widows walk

And wail among the willows

Widows walk ado walk on

I'm guessing this is called civil

Regrettably strife

So lessen your appalled

Pall mall and middle life

Long last a hymn to Him

To help you on your way

Contented is the boat

By chance how forlorn the shore

I've meant to take the chance

To turn you 'bout the floor

So trim the prim the lame

Have rose to say widows

Walk and wail among the willows

Widows walk and do so do the willows

Widows walk ado walk on
