Mama Winslow – Chester Copperpot lyrics

Album: Sticks And Stones

Chester pitched an old blue tent by the waterfront. He like the boats that sailed on by. He never knew for sure if he was one of them. So, he watched them sail on by...
Behind his room..before the grocery..beyond the fences of his yard..nature trailed into a pharmacy, suburban sprawled across a bard.
Just so tired driving round the same old town. On Monday morning when the walls came a tumbling down. Milk for the boys, when sunrise don't excite me anymore.
But, Chester met an old school girl by the waterfront. She liked the braids up in his hair. Beneath the auburn sun of a river song, he couldn't watch her sail on by.
She was the urban sermon he had longed to find. When she arrived, she arrived at a very good time. Hail to the queen. Only sunrise knows exactly what I mean.
He can see the sun from miles and miles away. Rainbows and ribbons in the sky. Laying on a greentop with love and wine. It's time for yesterday's goodbye.
Goodbye..do the birds fly when the silent poet dies..
Goodbye..let's take a trip into those cool October skies..
Goodbye..
