lyrics
When the fox gets hot, it crawls into the hole.
All the fellas in the evening say the horn will blow
to signal the drunks of the time to go.
The trumpeter says he's going to save my soul.
Well I ain't no drunk, does a drunk think he,
but he bellows gold and he's rough as the sea.
Those big black eyes are going to set me free
when the trumpeter blows his horn for me.
I knew my place and I knew my time-
in the black of the night, a burning spine.
“God almighty!” howl the men when the trumpet whines.
I am sailing endlessly in my ship on the foggy sea.
I can't escape that hallowed key.
The trumpeter is hollering.
“Come now, sailor, sing your plea.”
The cadence beckons restlessly.
In the hurricane, I'm free.
The trumpeter is hollering for me.
All the fellas in the evening say the horn will blow
to signal the drunks of the time to go.
The trumpeter says he's going to save my soul.
Well I ain't no drunk, does a drunk think he,
but he bellows gold and he's rough as the sea.
Those big black eyes are going to set me free
when the trumpeter blows his horn for me.
I knew my place and I knew my time-
in the black of the night, a burning spine.
“God almighty!” howl the men when the trumpet whines.
I am sailing endlessly in my ship on the foggy sea.
I can't escape that hallowed key.
The trumpeter is hollering.
“Come now, sailor, sing your plea.”
The cadence beckons restlessly.
In the hurricane, I'm free.
The trumpeter is hollering for me.
