Raucous Ravens

- with Andy Mackey


Smiling wide					
Listenin’ to the Honied Lady’s tones	
Kari Crow					
Pickin’ on a pile of chicken bones		
Singing happy songs; singing one sad song		
‘Bout blue birds singing of red birds gone		
While we rattle on, like raucous ravens		
 
Shinin’ black	
Rockin’ forth and rollin’ back
Singing sad songs; singing one happy song
‘Bout red birds singing of blue birds gone	
While we rattle on, like raucous ravens		

Sittin’ pretty 
Pluckin’ out a li’l ditty 				
Singing old songs; singing one real old-timey song
‘Bout blue birds singing how red birds gone
While we chatter on, like raucous ravens	

Smiling wide	
Knowing what the Honied Lady knows	
Singing old songs; singing one brand new song
‘Bout red birds singing of blue birds gone
So we sing along. like raucous ravens
