lyrics

The Big RED Barn rose into view
Right out of the upturned sod
Like a cherry on top, or the world's biggest apple,
Or the nose on the face of God
Scarlet O'Hara's probably waiting inside
With a jug full of strawberry wine
She'll blush when I kiss her on her big ruby lips
And I'll show her one red hot time.

The Big YELLOW Bus on the side of the road
In the hot June afternoon sun
It broke down, overheated, like a big stick of butter
It's a lemon and it just won't run.
The pretty young teacher in the sunflower dress
With her little chicks all in a row
They stand there squirming in the dandelions
Yellin', cuz they gotta go.

Well the world turns nice and slow
Out ere at the end of a county road
And Mister, what you think you know
We heard it four years ago
Can't tell my left hand from my right
So I'm going back outside
These colors hold the light
A whole lot better than your black and white.

The Big BLUE Sky is a cartoon sky
It's funny how it's in her eyes
When they laugh, when they cry, when I'm swimming inside 'em
Like a blueberry swimming in a pie.
If I stand on my head I might fall up to heaven
Lord, wouldn't that be a sight.
I think about this when I'm feeling kinda blue
And then I know everything's alright.

Kevin Brown Spokane, Washington

Singer-songwriter Kevin Brown makes his home in rural Northeastern Washington state, not too far from the farms where two sets of great-grandparents settled a century ago. The rich natural surroundings serve as a metaphor for exploring the landscapes of the heart and soul -- faith, family, love, the passage of time, and the interwoven fabric of earth and humanity. ... more
