about

Recorded with Wil Reeves at Centro Cellar Studio. Music written by the Sweaters.

lyrics

In a house in Effingham
In the shadow of the cross
He then knew that all was lost
He then had become a man

From a schoolhouse on a hill
And a mountain in the north
Great endowments flowing forth
And there's money in it still
Helps to pay the bills

Oh, I can't believe my eyes!
Is that a pickup truck and a man inside
Kirtley, though you were. Indebted as we are
Did we forget it in the car

In a briar-laden field
Wearing sandals made of pine
A commendable decline
For one unquestionably heeled

In a white house on the beach
Or a lunch club in the hall
She was born to do it all
But it's not something you can teach
Much to her relief

Oh, I can't believe my eyes!
Is that a beachfront house in the Countryside
Tattered though we look, flattered as we are
Could you send another car?
