lyrics

Where Will I Be?

The sky opened up it was iron clad black
I thought I heard a voice in the thunderclap
The voice said “Son what have you done
To prove yourself a righteous one?”
I buried my face in the ash and the dust
It’s too late for that if your hearts turned to rust
You gotta shovel the earth and dig your hole
You gotta shovel the earth and dig your hole
I said “Where Will I Be?” “Down in the dirt by the bottlebrush tree”
I said “Where Will I Be? When the time comes
When the time comes, when the time comes”
Well there’s a road that’s narrow, a road that’s wide
We’re on a dusty trail ‘tween the great divide
And as he scrubbed my name out from his book
The ground and the leaves and the trees all shook
I gotta shovel the earth and dig my hole
I gotta shovel the earth and dig my hole
I said “Where Will I Be?” “Down In the dirt by the ironbark tree”
I said “Where Will I Be?” “From dust you became and dust you will be”
I said “Where Will I Be? When the time comes
When the time comes, when the time comes”
O, roll my bones, deflate my lungs
Steal my breath and the songs we’ve sung
Heaven above and heaven below
I’ve paid my ticket to the picture show
Heat will cool and bleach bones white
Credits roll as day becomes night
I’m gonna write my sins upon the air
And watch them dissolve
And watch them dissolve
I said “Where Will I Be?” “Down In the dirt by the old gum tree”
I said “Where Will I Be?” “From dust you became and dust you will be”
I said “Where Will I Be? When the time comes
When the time comes, When the time comes”

about

Mark Moldre Sydney, Australia

"If Tom Waits, Elvis Costello and Jeff Tweedy were pushed out to sea in a rickety old boat they’d come up with something like this. ..a boisterous yet soulful musical journey worth the fare. You’ll be stomping and crying and laughing, and if you’re lucky to catch Moldre live, you’ll be doing all three with a whiskey in hand.” Timber & Steel ... more
