The Conquering Sun - Gord Downie, The Sadies

It’s getting on time to plant

Under the conquering sun

We were willing to a man

Under the conquering sun

But, for the sound of the whip-poor-will

And what is to occur

Night is a ways off still

Soon I will be with her

She is more than a conqueror

Working the fugitive dust

Under the conquering sun

Nature, please be good to us

Under the conquering sun

But, with the sound of the whip-poor-will

And what is to occur

Night, the quickening thrill

Soon I will be with her

She is more than a conqueror

Ooo, day is your word, night is the glue

Ooo, it is the work, day is your word, night is the glue

Sound of the whip-poor-will

Of what is to occur

Night, the quickening thrill

Soon I will be with her

She is more than a conqueror

Ooo, day is your word, night is the glue

Ooo, it is the work, day is your word, night is the glue

Ooo, night is the glue, night is the glue

Ooo, conquering sun, night is the glue

Ooo

Conquering sun, night is the glue

Conquering sun, night is the glue

Conquering sun, night is the glue

Night is the glue
