Good Graces - State Radio

Never mind the axis

Oh, she know which way to spin

And we like corn and molasses

And getting' mucked up in the ditch

We don’t go to bed at night

‘Cause we don’t like the way it feels

But we ain’t afraid of sunlight

Oh just don’t let it get to low

(Refrain)

Remember how we tried

Just to stay in your good graces

While you were washing all our faces

Whoa, remember how we lied

Just to stay in your good graces

While you were watching all your faces

Mama don’t love her work

Oh but she do what the Parson say

Just don’t tell her oh don’t tell her that it is Sunday

And we don’t go to bed at night, no

'Cause we don’t like the way it feels

But we ain’t afraid of sunlight, no

Oh, just don’t let it sink to low

(Refrain)

Remember how we tried

Just to stay in your good graces

While you were washing all our faces

Whoa, remember how we lied

Just to stay in your good graces

While you were washing all your faces

Remember how we lived

Remember how we died

Remember how we hated watching Ma cry

Remember how we saw young Charlie in a fight

Remember how he was swinging with all his might

Remember where we stood

Remember where we stand

We were always upset at you for the childhood we missed

But you were sleeping with the father so that he wouldn’t sleep with us kids

No, sorry did not know

The pain you was in

When you were raising us kids

No, sorry I did not know

The pain you was in

When you were raising us kids

Whoa, sorry I did not know

The pain you was in

When you were raising us kids

Whoa, sorry I did not know

The pain you was in

When you were raising us kids
