Steal Away / Hidden In Plain Sight Songtext
von Paula Cole
Steal Away / Hidden In Plain Sight Songtext
Steal away
Steal away
Steal away to Jesus
Steal away
Steal away home
I ain′t got long
To stay here
Bring your monkey wrench
Gather your coins
Wrap a loaf of bread
Your compass, your knife
Bundle it all up
In a ragged cloth
Leave in spring
When the geese fly north
Leave in spring
When the geese fly north
Ozella hangs the laundry
Out to dry
She hangs ten quilts
One at a time
Memorize the pattern
To make your way
To the other side, to Canada
To steal away
To the other side, to Canada
To steal away
Grab your hammer
Gather your tools
Look for your conductors
To lead you
The wagon wheels will carry you
'Mongst bales of hay
Right below their noses
To the Appalachians
Right below their noses
To the Appalachians
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize the pattern
Take flight tonight
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize the pattern
Take flight tonight
Even the lightning
Brightening your way
Keeping no wicked one′s
Hounds at bay
Don't walk a straight line
It'll give you away
Double back and walk a drunkard′s path
Keep safe
Double back and walk a drunkard′s path
Keep safe
Follow a bed trail
To the border line
Walk the path of animals
To water too high
The keys will lead you North
And lead you to hope
Towards the setting sun
To Cleveland
Towards the setting sun
To Cleveland
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize the pattern
Take flight tonight
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize the pattern
Take flight tonight
Miles over mountains
Led by the side
Of the north star of Bethlehem
Traveled by night
Resting in churches
In the shoofly's homes
You come to the crossroads
Where you change your clothes
You come to the crossroads
Where you change your clothes
Out of the ranks
You put on bow ties
Bonnets and ribbons
Are a fine disguise
Ferry off to Canada
Unpack your box
Sing of the carpenter
Sing low sweet chariot
Sing of the carpenter
Swing low sweet chariot
Make a new life
A husband and wife
Your great grandchildren
Will know your sacrifice
Remember Ozella
And the quilt she sewed
She showed us the map
Of the railroad
She showed us the map
Of the railroad
Ozella hangs the laundry
Out to dry
She hangs ten quilts
One at a time
Memorize the pattern
To make your way
To the other side, to Canada
To steal away
To the other side, to Canada
To steal away
I dream of land
I dream of land
I dream of land
I dream of land
I dream of land
I dream of this land
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize the pattern
Take flight tonight
Hidden in plain sight
Hidden in plain sight
Memorize this pattern
Take flight tonight
Steal away
Steal away to Jesus
Steal away
Steal away home
I ain′t got long
To stay here
Bring your monkey wrench
Gather your coins
Wrap a loaf of bread
Your compass, your knife
Bundle it all up
In a ragged cloth
Leave in spring
When the geese fly north
Leave in spring
When the geese fly north
Ozella hangs the laundry
Out to dry
She hangs ten quilts

Memorize the pattern

To steal away
To the other side, to Canada
To steal away
