I'm at home buzzing and this song is making me think of all of those widows of the soldiers who have died in Bush's fake ass war, especially the ones we've lost that were stationed here in Hawaii and now they have to go back to their home states. They have to leave this majestic Island, a palace in the middle of the Pacific. I'm so sorry you have to go, come here I will embrace you my sweet babies of wars reckoning, sit at my feet and I'll play a tune to soothe your souls....
Grateful Dead - Brokedown Palace Fare you well my honey
Fare you well my only true one
All the birds that were singing
Have flown except you alone
Goin to leave this Broke-down Palace On my hands and my knees I will roll roll roll
Make myself a bed by the waterside
In my time - in my time - I will roll roll roll
In a bed, in a bed
by the waterside I will lay my head
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
to rock my soul
River gonna take me
Sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
all the way back back home
It's a far gone lullaby
sung many years ago
Mama, Mama, many worlds I've come
since I first left home
Goin home, goin home
by the waterside I will rest my bones
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
to rock my soul
Goin to plant a weeping willow On the banks green edge it will grow grow grow
Sing a lullaby beside the water
Lovers come and go - the river roll roll roll Fare you well, fare you well
I love you more than words can tell
Listen to the river sing sweet songs
to rock my soul
