THE AVETT BROTHERS LYRICS - St. Joseph's

"St. Joseph's"



We spent the night at St. Josephs

Shaking and shivering in fever

Nurses and criminals before us

I will stay here with you, my love



We sat at Lake Junaluska

Cried over where we would wed

If it's this place or any other

It's not where I am it's who I'm with



News came of a child

Born unto a world

Of people demented and wild

I will be here for you, my love



What was our reason for fighting?

Selfish and centered at best

I give up on trying

To understand why we were blessed



We'll spend the night at St. Josephs.
