Lyrics

Down Autumn Walks down the wall
Autumn makes a real picture for me
And the music and food and talks that we have
We can't really draw five pig-faced people together
But still we stay for a little while
So we swing on a big willow tree
We all glide through the air on the branches that hang
We all know just where we want to be
Sitting on the roof
All the things we could say
The punk rock on the town hall
The tree on the hill
And Lucy next door hosing down the front footpath
God knows why she thinks that it has to be clean
So we swing on a big willow tree
We all glide through the air on the branches that hang
We all know just where we want to be
Swing on a big willow tree
We all glide through the air on the branches that hang
We all know just where we want to be
It's all because
Because of the big willow tree
All the memories I have of that round the backyard
From the ways that I wouldn't mind these days to be
So we swing through the air over Bob's little garden
The shed's not real upright but I think we'll fall down
Four years ago seems like miles from here
And the floorboards all creaked in the best house in town
So we swing on the big willow tree
We all glide through the air on the branches that hang
We all know just where we want to be
