Intro

Verse i

There is a road that meets the road that goes to my house

and how the green grows there.

And we got special boots that beat the path to my house

and it's careful, and it's careful when I'm there.

Verse ii

And I say your uncle was a crooked French Canadian

and he was gunshot running gin

and how his guts were all suspended in his fingers

and how he held'em, how held'em, held'em in.

Pre-chorus

And the water rolls down the drain.

The water rolls down the drain. O what a

lonely thing! In a lonely drain!

Chorus

July, July, July

never seamed so strange

July, July, July

never seamed so, never seamed so strange.

Verse iii

This is the story of the road that goes to my house

and what ghosts do there remain.

And all the thoughts that run the length and breadth of my house

and the chickens, how they rattle chicken chains.

Verse iv

And we'll remember this when we are old and ancient,

though the specifics might be vague.

And I'll say your camisole was a sprightly light magenta

when in fact it was a nappy bluish gray.
