    Lyrics:
    Oh my my, oh I guess
    That I've done my time, now I've laid to rest
    There’s a campfire inside my soul
    And it billows
    And the sky was a thousand years old
    Always kept time in my back pocket
    No man, goddamn, came to take my soul
    Shut the door, then lock it
    And where have all of my friends gone
    And where did all of my friends go
    And where have all of my friends gone
    They billow
    Thought that I saw Jessi, she was sitting in a crowd
    Thought that I saw Jessi, then I got to feeling proud
    To ever have known someone so pretty and so sweet
    Who every-time she sang a song it'd sweep me off me feet
    But oh my my, oh I guess
    That she did her time, now she's laid to rest
    There’s a campfire inside her soul
    Still billows
    Lay your head on my pillow
    There's a fire inside you, and that’s why you billow
    Stay calm, stay calm, and give me your palm
    A song, a song for you
    I walked to town, devil one side of me
    Held by an angel put poems inside of me
    Down to my mouth said won’t you recite to me, okay
    Every first Wednesday there goes that sound again
    Sun’s going down and she's a sundowner
    Stay calm, stay calm, and give me your palm
    Give me your palm, and I’ll sing you a song
    Young kids smoke cigarettes out on the avenue
    Sun’s going down so you might as well have a few
    Hey who are you? Did you hear the news?
    Anthony's dead, and Poor Richard too.
    They billow, they billow, and it makes me nervous
    They whittled a fiddle from wood in our service
    Now that it’s dusk, kids scatter the avenue
    Hey who are you? I'm a sundowner too

    Love how he keeps bringing back the reference to 'billowing', how it means one thing from the campfire, and makes him nervous when its the kid's cigarettes. This is one of the few albums I've heard in a while where I don't skip any of the songs. Just beautiful poetry and simple but melodic song writing. Music has been needing something like this.

    I just took an epic road trip to the southwest and Kevin Morby, especially this song, provided the perfect soundtrack. On our way back we went thru Kansas and to the exact spot this video was filmed. Castle Rock. Such a beautiful place. We were the only two people there and relived the video. Amazing place.

    Seeing Kevin Morby live at Union Transfer in Philly yesterday was an absolute dream. I've never felt such a soul connection to an artist's music the way I do his. I only knew him from the Babies and only recently discovered his solo work 🤯. I went to see his concert immediately. Kevin Morby's voice and lyrics have been there for me in both the dark and the light times and I am so grateful for that experience to see him. His voice is unique, lyrics are beautiful. And when he plays live, it seems that his ego takes a back seat. It's all about the music and the (big magical!) vibe..... Don't mean to gush here but the love and appreciation are real!!! 😊💖✨. Happy to see other big fans as well :)

    I like Kevin Morby. His songs are interesting (tempo changes, abrupt pauses, etc.), his lyrics are oddly particular ("every first Wednesday"), and his visuals starkly American (everything seen here). This makes for really unique yet still universally relevant themes. Sometimes his performativity is overdone and I can't follow, but that's OK. He's going for something. All of these things are embodied in this song and video. Looking forward to the rest of the record.

    Oh meu Deus, oh eu acho
    Que eu cumpri meu tempo, agora eu coloquei para descansar
    Há uma fogueira dentro da minha alma
    E ondula
    E o céu tinha mil anos
    Sempre mantive o tempo no bolso de trás
    Homem nenhum, porra, veio levar minha alma
    Feche a porta e tranque-a
    E para onde foram todos os meus amigos
    E para onde foram todos os meus amigos
    E para onde foram todos os meus amigos
    Eles ondulam
    Pensei ter visto Jessi, ela estava sentada em uma multidão
    Pensei ter visto a Jessi, aí comecei a me sentir orgulhoso
    Para sempre ter conhecido alguém tão bonito e tão doce
    Que toda vez que ela cantava uma música, isso me tirava do sério
    Mas, meu Deus, acho que
    Que ela cumpriu sua pena, agora ela está deitada para descansar
    Há uma fogueira dentro de sua alma
    Ainda ondula
    Deite sua cabeça no meu travesseiro
    Há um fogo dentro de você, e é por isso que você ondula
    Fique calmo, fique calmo e me dê sua palma
    Uma musica, uma musica pra voce
    Eu caminhei para a cidade, diabo um lado de mim
    Realizado por um anjo colocou poemas dentro de mim
    Até a minha boca disse você não vai recitar para mim, ok
    Toda primeira quarta-feira vai aquele som de novo
    O sol está se pondo e ela é uma poente
    Fique calmo, fique calmo e me dê sua palma
    Dê-me sua palma e eu cantarei uma canção para você
    Crianças fumam cigarros na avenida
    O sol está se pondo, então você pode muito bem ter alguns
    Ei quem é você? Você ouviu as notícias?
    Anthony está morto, e pobre Richard também
    Eles ondulam, eles ondulam, e isso me deixa nervoso
    Eles talharam um violino de madeira em nosso serviço
    Agora que está anoitecendo, as crianças se espalham pela avenida
    Ei quem é você?
    Eu sou um dono do som também
