cheshire county

Singer:mountain goats, the

when the sun came up

i got up

'cause you were saying my name backwards in your sleep again

the field outside was wet and green

and the most gorgeous cow i've ever seen

was coming right at me

right at you

her udder was fat with fresh milk

and her black and white coat was as smooth as silk

and in the waning of a long long year

i felt the remnants of last night disappear
