New York Electric Piano - Dying Calf in a Windstorm Lyrics



New York Electric Piano - Dying Calf in a Windstorm Lyrics




My daddy was a warrior
A soldier for the gangster warlords
Strapped to the max with orders
In Korea
Karate
A lethal weapon for a body

My daddy was a farmer
But he grew up to be a charmer
He used to tend his cattle
And then he'd lead them to slaughter
It wasn't much of a battle

Do you know what it is that made him love you?
Yes, now I know
Do you know what it is that made him care?
Well, now I know
Have you given back the things you took for granted?
I have
There is only so much time we have to share
My daddy was a musician
He like simple music without friction
He didn't like my voice
I sounded too forlorn
Like a dying calf in a windstorm

Like a dying calf in a windstorm

My daddy was a believer
He told my momma that he'd never leave her
But she died and went to Heaven
He got angry with God
And I don't think he ever forgave him

Do you know what it is that made him love you?
Yes, now I know
Do you know what it is that made him care?
Now I know
Have you given back the things you took for granted?
I have
There is only so much time we have to share

Like a dying calf in a windstorm
