lyrics

all those horses
running so fast
all those men
holding out to last
they are gone, they are gone, they are gone

all those castles
made to stand
all those apples
in adam's hand
they do fall, they do fall, they do fall

hey my missouri
way up on hungry hill
i asked you to stay
but i don't know that you will
i asked you to stay but I don't know that you will

standing in the screen door
wearing summer like a fever
all the things you had hoped for
have spent themselves
they spent themselves in their fervor

hey my missouri
way up on hungry hill
the devil he fought
with a force so fierce
it scalded the earth to its core

all those horses
running so fast
all those men
holding out to last
they are gone, they are gone, they are gone

all those castles
made to stand
all those apples
in adam's hand
they do fall, they do fall, they do fall.

The harmonies on their record are unbelievable. They also lent their fine voices to some tracks on my album. Middle Maki
