Lale 05:16
Lale Jean Rohe, 2010 We drew a map in the flesh of a melon Rosy juice dripping down upon a plate Around the world from seed to rind Another life, another time A blessing for the family wine. So what is left when the world starts a-changing? They paved the road from the village to the capitol It's only time now till your baby's off to Germany An interrupted family tree That's not what it was meant to be. La Le, La Le Divli da la la le Chemo lamazo samshoblo Shen ki genatsvale Chemo lamazo samshoblo Shen ki genatsvale. We drew a map in the flesh of a melon And all the walls of the house began to shake For who will care for the vineyard in the mountain dawn? Who'll be here when we are gone? And who will sing our ancient songs? La Le, La Le Divli da la la le He's gone, flown away, to the city where he works all day And he's gone, flown away, up to the mountain with a mouth of clay And she's gone, flown away, to the West where the strangers play And he's gone, flown away, to America where he will stay. Chemo lamazo samshoblo Shen ki genatsvale Chemo lamazo samshoblo Shen ki genatsvale.

Moving Day 03:19
Moving Day Jean Rohe 2011 All it takes is a full glass of wine And a couple good jokes to help pass the time Leave your lady and come lie by my side Cause tomorrow is moving day Between the boxes there’s enough room for two Bare bodies, bare walls, the bare nails peeking through Out with the old, you say, and in with the new Cause tomorrow is moving day Oh, the sorrow, watching you pack your things, leaving no trace One more dance before you unplug the stereo and cast me from your embrace Our bodies remember what the walls will forget And you two have a lifetime ahead of you yet No time for shame, I got no time for regret And tomorrow is moving day The things people give us, the things that we choose The weird shit we hang onto and the good things we lose Pack it all up in a big box of blues Cause tomorrow is moving day.
