Iron & Wine - Glad Man Singing Lyrics
I've become a glad man singing a songAbout a soldier on a good and a fallen angel***** as a fish and a highAbout a sad man climbed up a willow boughAnd the cops are on the fence around a dog in the mangerAnd the mouth of the river is wideWide...I've become a glad man singing a songBy the bushes, by the gas pumpGon' the flower and a constant star collidesAbout a sad man singing they forgotten howAnd the baby quick sucking when the milk went sourAnd the mouth of the river is wideWide...About a sad man lost in the hammock swayWhen the bridal gown came on and spit out the windowAnd the cops say the dog won't biteAnd the sad man's saying they forgot him whenAnd the blood running black in the valley shadowsAnd the river running all the whileI've become a glad man singing a songAbout a lover rolled over, said you must be tiredAnd the truth coming towards the lightAbout a sad man knocking on a chapel doorAnd a burned out boat called "Tried by Fire"And the mouth of the river is wideWide...
