Walking Songs

by Mathew Harmon

Part I:

I'm just a' walkin' down the trail and the bugs are jumpin'

and the grasses all bendin' in the stillness of the heat

I'm just a' walkin' down the trail and the bugs are jumpin'

and the poppies all openin' in the heat of the day

(x2)

Part II

Osprey flies

Osprey flies over mountain

Osprey flies

She's goin' to find a lover on the Mountain

(repeat part I, then to Part III)

Part III

Lupine Sky

Lupine Sky over Mountain

Lupine Sky

She's goin' to find a lover on the Mountain

(Repeat song til you get there, or get tired of singing)

Stories from the Sky: (a mellow picky guitar song)

a fire ant falls

a million

stories from the sky

scrapin' valley

oak trees grow

reach out from whence they slumber

morning light awakens old thoughts to new springs

holes where woodpecker stores

acorns for winter

turn around

turn a-round

for it is often brighter

behind you

(dig)

moments of

illumination

pass by like

blanket clouds

sun unseen
