Saltgrass and Sugarcane
Canebreakers

Sunrises never shined so patient,

Birds never fly so close,

But nothing ever keeps me waiting here

Like the way that your bitter wind blows.


Oh, saltgrass and sugarcane soothe me,

And she never thought I could choose.

If Jesus gave this ramblin' heart to me,

Well, no one gave me nothin' to lose.


So water me down

In a hole by the river,

And weather me around


'Till the mallards fly through

Oh, Calcasieu's calling me.

Will you call me too?

'Cause I'd rather be falling

Than waiting for you.


The good life they say just isn't given

If livin' becomes your disguise,

But believin's a better thing if you're hidden,

Not fightin' for an unprotected prize.
