Cheshire County by The Mountain Goats Lyrics
[Verse 1: John Darnielle]
When the sun came up, I got up
Cause you were saying my name backwards
In your sleep again
The field outside was wet and green
And the most gorgeous cow I'd ever seen
Was coming right at me, right at you
Her udder was fat with fresh milk
And her black and white coat was as smooth as silk
And in the waning of a long, long year
I felt the remnants of last night disappear
Disappear (x7)
When the sun came up, I got up
Cause you were saying my name backwards
In your sleep again
The field outside was wet and green
And the most gorgeous cow I'd ever seen
Was coming right at me, right at you
Her udder was fat with fresh milk
And her black and white coat was as smooth as silk
And in the waning of a long, long year
I felt the remnants of last night disappear
Disappear (x7)
