Got a phone call, some friends were in town

Time to build a fence and pull some weeds

Loaded up my car, with tools and with gloves

Sunlight pierced the hills in the east

Mixed some cement, dug some holes for poles

The wives prune the orchard, made a lunch to eat

When my summer ends, I'll dream of that wooden fence and

Watch me and my friends, 'til it's jump and fall asleep


City's like a breath, more like a gasp

It always leaves a part of me empty

Never enough, broken glass and rust

The streetlights divide the sidewalks so evenly

But I got some friends, who play in a band

The city bars make the rock and roll taste so sweet


(chorus)



Stars are all out, I lie wide awake

It's too hot to fall asleep in these tired sheets

I think of that fence, microphones and sandwiches

I thank the lord, he gives us what we need

My body it aches, from shovels and from drinks

So dig a hole and bury me with sleep


(chorus)
