Fishtails Lyrics - One Lost Day - Indigo Girls

You know all them sweaty boys hanging out at the copper mines 

You watched them growing up the bridge on the river shoals off ga 9 

They used to lay their sweet bodies out just waiting on a fishing line 

Just like your daddy did when he was a kid in the wilds of Florida 

But your daddy's gone and those boys jacked up got rough moved on 

You find your own self hiding in the stories of drunken men 

With their kids in tow from the picture show riding over mountain bends 

And you can feel their fingers crossing when the black ice of winter comes 

But they'll be fishtailing in the dark from the time that they are born

Hey, you know your daddy's gone, those boys you loved got rough with the girls and moved on 

Still you gotta find some goodness somewhere somehow, so hug the corners take the straights 

from the cradle to the grave we all give what we got 

In the winter you'll go south and fall asleep in the late day sun 

Holding still to catch the last of the warmth before the storm clouds roll on in 

At night you watch the kids riding in their hoodies in the rain 

Heading up to St. Johns causeway bridge fishtailing all the way

Hey, you know your daddy's gone, those boys you loved got rough with the girls and moved on 

Still you gotta find some goodness somewhere somehow, so hug the corners take the straights 

from the cradle to the grave we all give what we got 

From the craole to the grave we all give what we got 

Yeah we all give what we got
