[Verse 1]
Jenny was gone, and the moon blooms all shinin'
As we dragged our panic up and down the riverbed
Sweatin' wild and weird in our Sunday clothes

[Verse 2]
Jenny was gone, though I thought that I knew her
And the rain came howlin' out of Virginia
Blue tick blowin' the water out her nose

[Verse 3]
Jenny and me, in the front row and singin'
'Bout how heaven calls the kingdom of the animals
All and all revealed to us one day

[Verse 4]
Jenny and me, on the hilltop and peekin'
At all their upturned bottles jumpin' like leopards
Jaw harp teasin' the brush fire in its rage

[Verse 5]
Jenny came back, and the wet road still shinin'
In our eyes an angel clear and coronal
Clothed in all that's prodigal and strange

[Verse 6]
Jenny came back, and I thought that I heard her
Murmur somethin' 'bout no men in Virginia
Spat on the ground like a letter tossed away
[Verse 7]
Jenny and me, in my dead truck and turnin'
Over just where heaven calls the kingdom of the animals
Scratchin' our heads where the wolf would go to lay

[Verse 8]
Jenny and me, as the moon blooms were closin'
And both her wide-eyed brothers runnin' like shepherds
Dreamin' the heat of the fields all in flames
