A Minor Place

Ive been to a minor place

And I can say I like its face

If I am gone and with no trace

I will be in a minor place

Well I put the shoes in line

Separate the women mine

As we do what we do fine

So victorious, so benign

Ive been to a minor place

And I can say I like its face

If I am gone and with no trace

Ive been to a minor place

Only take the weather warm

And the job that does me harm

The scars of last years storm

Rest like maggots on my arm

Ive been to a minor place

And I can say I like its face

If I am gone and with no trace
I will be in a minor place

Thank you man if for the thought

That all my loving can be bought

Was wisely in your gullet caught

Before my loyalty you sought

Ive been to a minor place

And I can say I like its face

If I am gone and with no trace

I will be in a minor place

O its not a desert nor a web

Nor a tomb where I lay dead

Minor in a sound alone

Yes a clear commanding tone

Singing from my little point

And aching in my every joint

I thank the world it will anoint me

If I show it how I hold it
