Cow in the Spudline Trance

[Verse 1]
Out where the mist meets the meadow glow
I chew the cud in a gentle flow
Hooves in the clover keep time, keep time
Slow in the sunrise, I climb, I climb

[Chorus]
Ho, hey, herd, let the spirits sing (hey!)
Turn each breath in a grazing ring (ho!)
From the barn to the far hill green
I hum the calm that keeps my heart clean
Ho, hey, herd, let the currents roll
Cow-minded resting in a peaceful fold

[Verse 2]
Marks in the mud and the dew-washed skin
I walk the fields where my kin walked in
Rain on my back and a softened shout
Line down the slope as the thoughts drift out

[Chorus]
Ho, hey, herd, let the spirits sing (hey!)
Turn each breath in a grazing ring (ho!)
From the barn to the far hill green
I hum the calm that keeps my heart clean
Ho, hey, herd, let the currents roll
Cow-minded resting in a peaceful fold

[Bridge]
Low voices hum like a pasture line (mmm)
High voices float like a hillside pine (ahh)
Hooves in the grass, mind in the tune
We breathe together ‘neath the wide calm moon

[Chorus]
Ho, hey, herd, let the spirits sing (hey!)
Turn each breath in a grazing ring (ho!)
From the barn to the far hill green
I hum the calm that keeps my heart clean
Ho, hey, herd, let the currents roll
Cow-minded resting in a peaceful fold
