Chris and Adam’s Song
-words and music © 2005 Chris Monti

Momma and papa livin up on the hill | Momma and papa livin up on the hill | They ain’t makin much noise but that baby that’s a-comin sure will

Papa’s out workin, workin tile and slate | Papa’s out workin, workin tile and slate | Mamma’s makin sure then babies get fed all across that Green Mountain State

We got a blue starry sky and a waning moon coming up | We got a blue starry sky and a waning moon coming up | Papa grab a bottle for to fill my cup

We got some good tobacco and a brand new corn-cob pipe | We got some good tobacco and a brand new corn-cob pipe | Momma’s inside sleepin and the boys are tellin stories by firelight

I might live in the city but I ain’t no city man | I might live in the city but I ain’t no city man | I’m gonna pack up my things and get out of the city as fast as I can |
