HOWLING AT THE SUN LYRICS

The moment was right
The morning was in sight
The coyotes howled at the sun
They thought it was the moon
They all sang in tune, "Could everything be made right"

[Howl]

The men they all twirled
While the women they unfurled their stifled wisdom of the earth
The children they laughed at their parents grim past
The parents cried tears of rebirth

[Howl]

Build your huts of the straw and clay
Be sure to leave space for strangers who make their way to you
with their tired feet
Wash their tired feet

[Howl]

The kings they all cried as they watched their kingdoms die
making deals on the sly even then
They moved through the night while everyone else slept alright
The shadows became their best friend

[Howl]

GINSENG SONG LYRICS

If you're looking for the medicine of life
you'll go to the north side of the mountain

And if you hear the 'seng bird pecking loud
you'll know you are far from sin

And if you follow the rattlesnake fern's eye
well then you've arrived
