c. Close of A Long Day

lyrics

Mallow t’ward the river passing Perry on the way
When you see that water that’s where Perry’s ashes lay
Perry was my uncle and his heart was black and cold
He cheated many women and he murdered men for gold

“Uncle, oh dear uncle, is there nothing that you fear?
The women plot their vengeance and the men are drawing near.”
“Nephew—silly nephew!—you are such a foolish one.
I’ll be here tomorrow, same as river, same as sun.”

Soon my wicked uncle was half deaf and mostly blind
His body shrank and withered like the skin snakes leave behind
When they came upon him they beat uncle like a beast
The river changed direction and the sun set in the East

We tried to bury uncle but the Earth refused the bones
Each time we started digging we would always strike a stone
Mallow t’ward the river passing Perry on the way
When you see that water that’s where uncle’s ashes lay
