Lyrics
My old man he works five hours When most folk open their eyes His knees are givin' out But he says sweats how, he survives My mama worked at a nursing home She told me what they say As they died they whispered Not to give one day away My grandpa was a mason He laid brick till his hat was hung He told me two cicadas sang him songs When he was wild and young All these years that hurry by Keep taking too damn long Soon enough you'll hear the sound Of sound of cicadas singin' their song Singin' oooooh, oooooh, oooooh, oooooh Often times I think of them like a choir from back home Distance has an awful way to mak? a boy feel alon? I'll send him letters and stamp th?m twic? To make sure that they send You send me sounds of that old place And the cicadas in the wind Singin oooooh, oooooh, oooooh, oooooh Me and all my buddies ran those hills till they turn black Remembering Randal"s smile and then a baseball cap We lost him with his front-end Wrapped around a tree Not a day goes by that I don't wish that boy was me Singin oooooh, oooooh Singin oooooh, oooooh Those cicadas singin as we all bring our sorry a**es home The middle of the spring as the moonlight rings Youll never be alone Those cicadas singin as we all bring our sorry a**es home In the middle of the spring as the moonlight rings Youll never be alone Singin oooooh, oooooh, oooooh, oooooh
