The Great Pontificator
Piles and piles and piles of pictures
Overflowed in boxes in the garage
A great war was being waged for the future
Of a family soldiers on the march
Loading a 27 footer
Mothers attic with broken furniture
Hell on wheels and 4 teenagers
On our way to greener pastures
Heading north up from Houston never to return
The great pontificator was a hero among men
So say goodbye forever
To the shadows of where you've been
We're on our way to the the evergreen
Fields of Washington
I ain't ever seen the mountains
Flatlands all I'd known
Until douglas firs and cold winds
Welcomed us into their arms
There was a house in New Orleans
A ball and chain we'd known
But now our fearless leader was on a jailbreak
We were on the run
Integrity and loyalty are just words to some men
But our fearless leader made a home in them
Heading north up from Houston never to return
The great pontificator was a hero among men
So say goodbye forever
To the shadows of where you've been
We're on our way to the the evergreen
Fields of Washington
Overflowed in boxes in the garage
A great war was being waged for the future
Of a family soldiers on the march
Loading a 27 footer
Mothers attic with broken furniture
Hell on wheels and 4 teenagers
On our way to greener pastures
Heading north up from Houston never to return
The great pontificator was a hero among men
So say goodbye forever
To the shadows of where you've been
We're on our way to the the evergreen
Fields of Washington
I ain't ever seen the mountains
Flatlands all I'd known
Until douglas firs and cold winds
Welcomed us into their arms
There was a house in New Orleans
A ball and chain we'd known
But now our fearless leader was on a jailbreak
We were on the run
Integrity and loyalty are just words to some men
But our fearless leader made a home in them
Heading north up from Houston never to return
The great pontificator was a hero among men
So say goodbye forever
To the shadows of where you've been
We're on our way to the the evergreen
Fields of Washington
