Brown bird.

 Come on baby let me take your troubles away 

Some mean old mama's got your head all in a horrible way 

Still for all your cryin' and all your pain 

You're just the sweetest little woman that I've seen in my day 

So come on pretty mama let me take your troubles away 

 I've heard you wake up cryin' from the evils lyin' under our bed 

You say there's no use tryin' to protect you from the danger and dread 

Though this world is made of fearsome beasts that bark and bite 

We were born to put these creatures through one hell of a fight 

May we feast upon the flesh of any fever that befalls you tonight 

  Soon her sides will split wide open 

We shall feast when darkness falls 

Sing until our jaws are broken 

Heed the blackened water's call 

 Lay down your burdens don't you let them drag you into the ground 

I know you're hurtin' but there's plenty of your pain to go 'round 

Lord knows that everybody's got a cross to bear 

And I see no use in tryin' to contrast and compare 

There's always someone being slaughtered by a bigger stack of splinters somewhere 

  If a day should break in anger 

Patience weak and temper strong 

Put our able hands to labor 

We will work through what went wrong
