lyrics
Down A Hill – D. Elias
Look away sunny time
It's alright with me
I don't know where I been
It's sure been nice to see you
And while you're gone
On your way
Keep me in your eye
Say a prayer
Sing a song
Remember me next time
Cause a slow boat is riding on a hill
Slow boat is riding on a hill
Don't try to knock it
You sure can't dock it
No need to stock it it is always filled
If you could hock it it would grease your pocket
It is a slow boat it's riding on a hill
And when it's warm
In the fall
Bring a breeze for me
I don't care
Where it blows
At land's end or at sea
And while you're gone
On your way
Keep me in your eye
Say a prayer
Sing a song
Remember me next time
Cause a slow boat is riding on a hill
Slow boat is riding on a hill
Don't try to knock it
You sure can't dock it
No need to stock it it is always filled
If you could hock it it would grease your pocket
It is a slow boat it's riding on a hill
On a hill
On a hill
Down the hill
Look away sunny time
It's alright with me
I don't know where I been
It's sure been nice to see you
And while you're gone
On your way
Keep me in your eye
Say a prayer
Sing a song
Remember me next time
Cause a slow boat is riding on a hill
Slow boat is riding on a hill
Don't try to knock it
You sure can't dock it
No need to stock it it is always filled
If you could hock it it would grease your pocket
It is a slow boat it's riding on a hill
And when it's warm
In the fall
Bring a breeze for me
I don't care
Where it blows
At land's end or at sea
And while you're gone
On your way
Keep me in your eye
Say a prayer
Sing a song
Remember me next time
Cause a slow boat is riding on a hill
Slow boat is riding on a hill
Don't try to knock it
You sure can't dock it
No need to stock it it is always filled
If you could hock it it would grease your pocket
It is a slow boat it's riding on a hill
On a hill
On a hill
Down the hill

David Elias recommends:
-
Intricate, exacting, sonically meticulous, extemporary in all its planning, takes you into a room then into a field then into the void.

Because of a Flower
by Ana RoxanneBought the vinyl. Spectacular use of sound with some insane vocal tracks overhead.
go to album -
Start at the end and play it backwards. Or forwards. Sideways either way. Squarely unsquare and rapidly descending. Captured.
