Armand Hammer, The Alchemist - Peppertree Lyrics

When they march me down the road, so
When them ride me down the road, though

Mahogany with the gold trim silent except for children crying
They never even knew him
Then trumpets flying, the bearers shining
Shoes sink in the wet, ground horns vying
Sun rising, the pit lying in waiting
Like a clever lion, mouth gaping
And after they ate chicken rice peas
Sticky cake the, chill'ns laughing
And playin', forgot they place
Plates and dishes piled and washed as women whisper
Men talk circles

When them ride me down, so
When them take me down, so

Bent backed over Wray & Nephew marijuana cigars
Hidden hearts
A dark road carved the blackness stretch like tar
Dogs beg for scraps at the edge of the hearth
But it's something else out there in the dark
Something else out there in the dark
Something else out there where you are
Something else out there

When them bring me up the road, so
When them take me up the road, so
Peppertree wave over me tombstone
