about

written and arranged by daniel evans

lyrics

among the trees
in the distance
a timber wolf runs away

you take aim
at a red-wing balck bird
you didn't have much to say

where's the proof
where's the oxbow
this isn't the finger lakes

your voice carries
but your back is broken
don't let it stand in your way

(allis
allis
allis the land of perfect roots

allis
allis
allis the land for me & you)

the a.r.c. boys
take their lunches
over at your mother's place

she does alright
well known in the county
for her quarter pound t-bone steak

you washed their cars
with your cousin
before she left the state

another city
another penitentiary
all for one, one for all, all for one mistake
