Amos Lyrics by Home Groan

Fish

2000

[Intro]
I've got a haven in the backwoods
It's a place where I can hear myself
The valley's spreading a rumor
Osborne's alive and is in good health
[Chorus]
Can you remember when the dam was built?
He wouldn't budge until the flood they spilled
There was a mention in a questionnaire
But what is lost you cannot beat
[Verse 2]
From an airplane there's a sparkle down on land
A shining jewel or a lake built by man
Under her surface is a hidden take
Running through her waters an ancient trapper's trail
[Verse 3]
So there's a rumor down in the valley?
Has a reporter seen Big Foot again?
Or is it Amos Trapper Osborne
Has he come to surface again?
I can't believe it, I swear that he's gone
How could he ever survive this long
But if he's out there, I wish him well
Leave him alone, the world will give him hell
[Chorus]
Wilson's rock in a landslide
Tumbled past me today
Just another reminder
I guess I'm doing OK
I can still see the hobo
That I'm trying to be
Like a rock in a landslide
Slipping into the sea
Wilson's rock in a landslide
Just like Amos would live
Are all sorted in order
By the rules of the sieve
There's a name in the Bible
There's a sieve in our mind
But Amos Trapper Osborne
The sieve will never find
