lyrics

A frost on the kitchen window

A hush upon the world

The homesteaders let their fences fold

And wandered long ago

But I'm no more a traveler than

The blackjack pine

That stands about my home



Place no stone on me

Place no stone on me

Might be time to rest

I ain't done just yet

Place no stone on me



Mother fell to fever

Father did too

Or grief for all we knew

And both my brothers

Were younger than me

So I raised them as we grew

When I had other plans for life

It was the right thing to do



Place no stone on me

Place no stone on me

Might be time to rest

I ain't done just yet

Place no stone on me



My daughter was just three years old

Startled from a dream

Saying Daddy you're gonna get older and older

And older, till you're free

Wish it didn't hurt me to say

She's a lot like me



Place no stone on me

Place no stone on me

When I move on

To the great beyond

Place no stone on me

about

The High and Wides Baltimore, Maryland

The High & Wides draw on their backgrounds in bluegrass to take the music to a place of their own with inspiration from the days when old-time, rockabilly, western swing, and proto-rock'n'roll mingled in a murky soup of hillbilly string band music.
