Two flat tires on the Model T

Two birds fighting for a bug

Faded squares like snowy TV screens

Where your photographs were hung

Keep Old Glory folded on a shelf

In a cabinet full of guns

Sell that engine block to someone else

Maybe they can make it run

How'd that calf get out beyond the fence

How'd that hole get in your jeans

Movie show was once but twenty cents

That mud there was once a stream

The moon is high your nose is burnt

Your dog is gone

Your mouth is dry the milk is turned

But Barbara's home

Hand in hand you watch the sun go down

Coloured lullaby of God

Barbara wears her mother's old nightgown

Sleeping with a nightlight on

White sheet blowing on a short clothesline

New tree bending to the breeze

This clock's beautiful but can't keep time

What's that scar on both your knees

The moon is high your nose is burnt

Your dog is gone

Your mouth is dry the milk is turned

But Barbara's home
