Abraham Lyrics

Abraham was born

To the mother of his mother

His father did not a thing

But close an open door

His mother married once again

And fell in love

And found a friend

And Abby felt a weight

Off his shoulders

His shoulders

Abby loved the water

But he hated the cold

He learned to start an open fire

And dance with the wolves

Abby sang softly

To the drunkards on the concrete

Abby got older

Abby got old

Abby found Jesus

In a woman twice his age

Had a thing for her breasts

To suckle is to save

His childhood through things

That grew growing so tall

He wished to crack the window

Just to see his mom

His mother was to fall apart

His father was to die

The man that took care of her

Became a widowed bride

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby missed the water

From when he was small

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby wished the world away

From on top of Bob

Abby found out

Men were fun

Uncanny they all fall

But when he found a stable man

He always found a wall

Abby wished to tell his mom

Thinks she'd cry relief

He finally found a man

A man who wouldn't leave

And Abby found rice

In the church pew again

Made him miss the war

And made him miss his friends

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby missed the water

From when he was small

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby wished the world away

From on top of Bob

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby missed the water

From when he was small

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby wished the world away

From on top of Bob

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby missed the water

From when he was small

Abby got older

And Abby got tall

Abby thinks his worst mistake

Was leaving his mom
