Old creaky cupboard doors and that old squeaky drawer
Bottles and jars all full of potions and lore
For the morning sunlight on your pocket lint
The kindness of strangers when they take you in
For the silent song on the forests' lips
The joke the cold creek cracks when you can't take a hint
Well there ain't no balm for that
And there ain't no tea for that
There sure ain't a song for that just a
Pat on the back
For my sisters' laughter and the things she said
Her back porch coffee and her beets and bread
For his silhouette out by the old shed
And the song sung gently up against my neck
Old creaky cupboard doors and that old squeaky drawer
Bottles and jars all full of potions and lore
But there ain't no balm for that
And there ain't no tea for that
There sure ain't a song for that just a
Pat on the back
No there ain't no balm for that
And there ain't no tea for that
There sure ain't a song for that just a
Pat on the back
