10000 Maniacs - Maddox Table Lyrics

  • [ music: natalie merchant/lyric: natalie merchant ]
  • The legs of maddox kitchen tables
  • My whole life twisted on a lathe
  • In a foremans torrent
  • My first english was
  • Faster boy if you want your pay
  • Barking commands
  • Loud and simple
  • We could all obey
  • Then I was forever pulling silvers
  • Rubbed the sawdust always
  • Deeper in my eye
  • Varnish vapor that could linger
  • On my skin
  • It held tight
  • The whine of spinning blades
  • Still echoes to bother my sleep at night
  • See that ox
  • Stamped dead center
  • On the letter head of the company mail
  • Four decades a spitting image
  • Of the animal I portrayed
  • At maddox table a yoke was carved
  • For my neck
  • Sun through the window oil spattered
  • And in mason jars
  • Tricked plenty seeds thrive
  • The standing joke
  • Around the shop was
  • With my green thumb
  • Anythingd grow
  • My part was to laugh
  • Show and ornery jig had
  • Cut it at the knuckle bone
  • See that ox
  • Trade mark burned
  • Into every stick of furniture
  • From horn to tail
  • Four decades a spitting image
  • Of the animal I portrayed
  • At maddox table a yoke was carved
  • For my neck
  • Was tailor made
  • O my dolly was a weak
  • Not a burdened girl
  • Treat her to a piece of vaudville
  • A wintergarden moving picture show
  • Bemus point on july sundays
  • By trolley wed go
  • To your benefit wes strike or bargain
  • With the waving fist a union man
  • Not just for
  • Smokes spirits candy and cologne
  • But for
  • Automobile keys
  • Cash in the bank
  • And the deed
  • On a place called home
