Dan Mangan - Pine For Cedars Lyrics






She might be wearing
A green Chamise
And a hat that she bought
'Cause it matches her jeans

And the water she drinks
Oh it comes from the stream
By the house she might win
In that hospital lottery

And I might be stumbling
And cursing them all
When she picks me up
From the place that we both call

Disaster relief
For the rent must be paid
By the first of the month
Or in my case fifteenth

This is good
As far as I can tell
It's still heavy as hell
When it's good

And I do like the road
But I'd be better at home
I will pine for the oak streets
And pine for the cedars and you

Been around I suppose
I have chatted and chewed
I have loved my guitar
To the nice cafe blues

And when I come home
I am coming home
To this street
And these avenues

This is good
But as far as I can tell
It's still heavy as hell
When it's good

And I do like the road
But I'd be better at home
I will pine for the oak streets
Pine for the cedars and you

    I'm from Oklahoma City, USA. There are a ton of great artists in America who are undiscovered and will never be nationally recognized but they are able to mantain a cult like following and make money. Canada has alot of great talent, I can acknowledge that, they just have a very low population compared to us.

  5. G.... R....

    We don't want him to be more popular. He is a wonderful secret we can keep to ourselves.

    Yes I am aware of that. I meant that it's more of a French thing because it's in the French language. I'm saying I've never heard people say chemise while speaking English. Also, I live near Vancouver as well. I'm Canadian I've just never heard people mix chemise into English before.

  11. j.... ....

    You know that people speak French in Canada, right?

  12. M.... R....

    Well it's more a French thing as it is French for shirt but I guess people do use it in Canada.

  13. j.... ....
