Uncle Carter

Uncle Carter’s comin' up this weekend
He says he’s missin' us and he’s not sleepin'
And findin' time to throw some chords at me is like pullin' teeth
There’s always a light on
Always a sad song
Waitin' for us at the door
There’s no time for bad days
When an old friend comes to stay
Who’s got troubles anymore?
Winter or summertime
You know we don’t mind actually
We’re lucky for the time we have
It’s so good to see ya
He’s always strummin' that old beat up Gibson
A missin' string and pickguard that he stopped fixin'
But he could sing the phone book and I’d listen patiently
There’s always a light on
Always a sad song
Waitin' for us at th door
There’s no time for bad days
Whn an old friend comes to stay
Who’s got troubles anymore?
Winter or summertime
You know we don’t mind actually
We’re lucky for the time we have
It’s so good to see ya
