S.J. Tucker - April Fool's Day lyrics
[S.J. Tucker - April Fool's Day lyrics]
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
Clear 'cross Tennessee!
My best love was riding shotgun
Myself in the driver's seat
We went riding all day Sunday
Home for our loved ones all to see
Unplug the bed, stretch and yawn
Felt like ash in the crack of doom
Leaving at the crack of Nine
From a cozy North Carolina room
All on an April Fool's Day Sunday
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
Clear 'cross Tennessee!
Left behind the Northern snow
Fields of white, on the day before
Off thru the frisky mountain rain
Winter storms we'll chase no more!
Tunnels, trees and mountain fog
Highway miles and a cloudy day
Laughing streams and waterfalls
Springtime splashing all the way!
All on an April Fool's Day Sunday
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
Clear 'cross Tennessee!
New leaves rising on the vine
And flowers simply everywhere
Never doubt the day was fine
We rode as quickly as we dared!
April fools and flowers bold
March is leaving like a lamb
Knoxville, Nashville, Westward Ho!
(round the churchfolk traffic jams)
All on an April Fool's Day Sunday
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
Clear 'cross Tennessee!
And here's our priestess at the door!
Merrily we greeted her
Circle round for what's in store:
A pie in the face from a Minister!
All on an April Fool's Day Sunday
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
Clear 'cross Tennessee!
All on an April Fool's Day Sunday
Riding, riding we shall be
Homeward thru the waking spring
To Memphis, Tennessee!
Carrot casts the circle round
And Rabbit rules the afternoon
Keep your leaping summer fires -
We revel 'neath an April moon!
