Rate The Good Son
Artist : Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds Song : The Good Son
One more man gone One more man gone One
more man is gone
The good son walks into
the field He is a tiller, he has a tiller's
hands But down in his heart now He lays
down his queer plans Against his brother and
against his family Yet he worships his
brother And he worships his mother But it's
his father, he says, is an unfair man The good
son The good son The good son
The
good son has sat and often wept Beneath a
malign star by which he's kept And the
night-time in which he's wrapped Speaks of
good and speaks of evil And he calls to his
mother And he calls to his father But they
are deaf in the shadows Of his brother's
truancy The good son The good son The
good son The good son
And he curses his
mother And he curses his father And he
curses his virtue like an unclean thing The
good son The good son The good
son
One more man gone One more man
gone One more man One more man gone One
more man gone One more man One more man
gone One more man gone One more
man (Repeat)
