Brass Sky Lyrics

I gotta bent up truck, gotta fix-it-up

So I set it on the backyard lawn

Put the radio loud in the window

I tuned it into rock

Now I'm patiently waitin' on music

But the DJ rambled and sang

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

A bright-eyed woman on the hour

Brings a glass of tea

And I can tell she's as pretty as a flower

When she comes to me

She winds away the water

From my eyes and soothes my brain

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

There's fear in the sky

A big storm is what it means

Waitin' out the weather

By workin' on the truck

We get to hang out together

Can't believe this luck

Glass is fine by the hour

But don't match with mine

It got wrecked playin' sailor in the shower

Last Christmas time

The song's written in another language

But the weather forecast is plain

It was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

Well it's a bad day for flyin'

But they won't fly with me

Starin' at the boats and planes

That are stayin' on the ground

Another won't leave it's hidin'

Til the wind turns 'round

A bright-eyed woman in the kitchen

Cooks up a kiss of death

Boilin' up mango, crab and coconut

And includin' cinnamon bread

But she drops the pan and says

Paranoia is out and breeds like a runaway train

And it was blowin' in a brass sky

But it won't rain

And it won't rain for tryin'

And it won't rain for beans

Well it's a bad day for flyin'

They won't fly with me, no

Starin' at the boats and planes

Stayin' on the ground

Another won't leave it's hidin'

Til the wind turns 'round
