The Whippgrass Lyrics

Justin Vernon The Whippgrass

Lay low little babe
You're still my precious child
You're all old and grown now
But you're still the same inside
Standin on the whippgrass
Standin on the whippgrass
Sittin on the whippgrass
Watch and see how we last
You're not alone tonight, babe
You're not so far from your home
You got the strength of all us, babe
I give a prayer unknown
Sittin on the whippgrass
Sittin on the whippgrass
Just sittin' on the whippgrass
I'm so full
and this is so vast
I know we'll all be together, babe
Someday, somehow
Carry to a higher bound, babe
It's not a sight or a sound
Smokin' around
It's within me somehow
I'll carry to what I am bound
The truth that I have found
Standin' on the whippgrass
It moves along the whippgrass
It moves along the whippgrass
It moves along the whippgrass
It moves along the whippgrass
It moves along the whippgrass
See how it lasts
