Alan Baez - Curses of My Father Lyrics

I've got the curses of my father
Yes, my tongue can speak no hate
If that man ain't my brother
It's cause I've yet to learn his name
No I can't wish no harm to others
Even if it's harm they've done to me
That's just the way my mother
Has brought me up to be
I love the pouring water
And the smell of the steeets when it rains
It reminds me of my lover
It reminds me that smell has no name
Well if I could I'd name it after my baby
If I wasn't so afraid of how big headed she would be
For if she got up and left me
The rain would only wake me from my sleep
