Adirondack Blue Lyrics by The Bacon Brothers

Forosoco

1997

Supper just went on and on and on
Dishes done the songs were sung
As the night fell on the lake
My heart began to ache
Laughter from the dock below
And I know I am too young to go
And the kerosene burns bright
Their motor fades into the night
They are gone
By a rock that's stuck with gum
Slipped and fell I cut my thumb
And it just won't seem to heal
Just like everything I feel
I found him put him in a box
And I filled it up with leaves and rocks
But I guess that wasn't wise
Closed his salamander eyes
'Cause he is gone
Is it the storm that's in from Canada?
Or the crying of the loon?
Or the ending of another year?
Or the cold blue August moon?
Or the embers dying in the fire?
Or the mud that's in my shoe?
How can this place that I have loved so much
Leave me adirondack blue?
Leave me adirondack blue?
Leaves were still the lake was glass
Man that thing was really fast
Flying in my brother's boat
Singing songs my brother wrote
Built it himself from spit and glue
Just another thing that I couldn't do
But man can I get high
Must be the wind that makes me cry
And I am gone
In a broken down lean-to
I'm doing things I shouldn't do
And she's in a gold canoe
And she knows I know she knew
I watch her hold my first born one
On a big white rock in the sun
To see another sunset die
And her blue eyes say goodbye
And she is gone
Is it the storm that's in from Canada?
Or the crying of the loon?
Or the ending of another year?
Or the cold blue August moon?
Or the embers dying in the fire?
Or the mud that's in my shoe?
How can this place that I have loved so much
Leave me adirondack blue?
Leave me adirondack blue?
Leave me adirondack blue?
