Three examples on how a great songwriter can use an "economy of lyrics" Not everything needs to be explicitly stated

The condition doesn't have to be stated.


Well, she said she'd stick around until the bandages came off
But these mama's boys just don't know when to quit
And Mathilda asks the sailors "are those dreams or are those prayers?"
So close your eyes, son, and this won't hurt a bit



the question doesn't need to be asked.
Well I heard the owl calling
Softly as the night was falling
With a question and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline

He's gone away in yesterday
And I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the great divide



The passage of time.

[ Eddie played the steel guitar
And his mama cried 'cause he played in the bars
And kept young Rita out late at night
So they married up in Abilene, lost a child in Tennessee
Still that love survived

Is this the song you posted? Just a different link? I like it.

The other link was blocked by the person who put it on YouTube.

Colonel Frank Grimes likes the band Clutch and crab cakes, so I guess he likes this song. I never ate crab. I doubt I ever will.
