Song by Tom Troyer
(ASCAP)

lyrics

All our songs live in the rafters,
They were born in dream catchers.
All my children and their laughter,
They live happily ever after.
That’s my daughter Annabelle
She’s my favorite joke to tell
She fell into a wishing well
She was drinking what she wouldn’t tell
But if you meet her say her father said…
Say I’m either dying or I’m dead
So tell my children what I said what I said
what I said:
“my body made a terrible bow line
My mind too prone to slip
My soul no sinking ship”
So tell my family
That’s my son named Gabriel
He’s my lucky star who fell
with pocket’s full of things to sell
They sent him home for raising hell.
I met the principal and the policeman
and I told them both:
I’m either dying or I’m dead
So tell my children what I said what I said
what I said:
“my body made a terrible bow line
and my mind too prone to slip
but my soul no sinking ship.
So tell my family
All our songs live in the rafters
They were born in dream catchers
All my children and their laughter
They were born to dance at the funeral.
‘Cause I’m either dying or I’m dead
So tell my children what I said what I said
what I said:
“my body made a terrible bow line
and my mind too prone to slip
but my soul no sinking ship.”
So tell my family
“Since I am a spiritual man you can bury me where I stand,
you can bury me where I stand and you can burn all the evidence.”
