Caledonia Mission lyrics
Songwriters: Robertson, Robbie;
She reads the leaves and she leads the life
That she learned so well from the old wives
And it s so strange to arrange it
You know I would not change it
But hear me if you re near me, can I just rearrange it?
The watchman covers me with his remedy
I can t see and it s hard to feel
I think his magic might be real
And I can t get to you from your garden gate
You know it s always locked by the magistrate
And he don t care why you cry
You know he thinks it s just a lie
To get out, I don t doubt that you d make a try
And if the good times get you through
I know the dogs won t bother you
We ll be gone in moonshine time
I ve got a place they ll never find
You know I do believe in your hexagram
But can you tell me how they all knew the plan?
Now, did you trip or slip on their gifts?
You know we re just a con
You knew it, so why did you do it?
I ve been hiding in the dark
So now, I must be on my way
I guess you really have to stay
Inside the mission laws
On the river banks of Caledonia
