Letra

Paint me a picture of the old homestead
Of a country churchyard where my parents lie
Paint me a picture of the house where we once lived
Cause it stands like a mansion on the hillside

Well, I was just a farmer's son
Who left the hills like everyone
Was doing that year when we finished school
Went to the city and looked for work
With a porridge emblem on my shirt
No one was gonna take me for a fool
Well woman I lost a hundred jobs
It seemed no matter what I got
There was no kind of work that suited me
And before I knew it the years had pa**ed
I saw my face it the window gla**
Just another whino on the street

Paint me a picture of the old homestead
Of a country churchyard where my parents lie
Paint me a picture of the house where we once lived
Cause it stands like a mansion on the hillside
One day when I was on the street
Begging poor just so a boy could eat
I just bought a port of cheap Chambly
I saw a man with a box of chalk
Drawing pictures on the grey sidewalk
With a little sign that said donations please
Well as that man looked up and me
Something weird come over me
Yes, I could swear it was someone I once knew
Well, as it turned out we were high school chums
Now here we were, just drunken bums
Now ain't it sweet what thirty years can do

And I said paint me a picture of the old homestead
Of a country churchyard where my parents lie
Paint me a picture of the house where we once lived
Cause it stands like a mansion on the hillside

We went, we drank that jug of wine
We talked about the good old times
Our heads were full of booze and memories
Well then the old man said I got to go
But I dragged his sleeve and whispered low
Before you go one thing please do for me
That is paint me a picture of the old homestead
Of a country churchyard where my parents lie
Paint me a picture of the house where we once lived
Cause it stands like a mansion on the hillside
Yes it stands like a mansion on the hillside
