Some of Them Were Superstitious

Lyrics

Some of them were superstitious, sitting with their backs facing the orchard All of them with mittens on their hands and feet were waiting there for winter Thousands on the freeze rail, I could never join them there And we dare not bother, but couldn't help but holler "yeah" There's no use in hiding the joy from the bright of sun I could wait for winter, better if it never comes Some of them were superstitious, watching them parade around the townsquare Some of them were praising monocle men simply 'cause they don't know better Someone to protect them, someone to keep track of them No, I don't believe them, I would rather holler "yeah" There's no use in hiding the joy from the bright of sun Now you say you're leaving, but leaving will just bring you down Can you operate machines like that? Miles a day on tough terrain and grass I'm not sure if we will meet again I guess it depends on which company you're in And when you're gone, you're gone So soon, so soon, so long But life, it works for someone And you're someone So soon, so soon, so long And when you're gone, you're gone And life, it works for someone And you're someone And you're someone And you're someone
