Compliments

I’m fixing a drink in the morning
With the way things are,
You may have stayed too long
You’re splitting apart at the seams
From the hospital call
You’ve known him so long
If there’s a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something
To fall back on Deep in the heart of the country
Was a house I built from logs
A raven and a lady hawk
Quiet and calm through the day
See the sun burn through the fog
Approaching was a yellow dawn
And what are people really for?
Does anybody even care?
I’ll bet you get a lot of compliments down there
And do you got something to say?
Isn’t something coming over you?
Do you got important things
Still left to do?
