Berikut ini lirik lagu “The Sacred Harp” dari Paul Simon.
A change of mood
A summer storm erased the sunny sky
Two hapless hitchhikers were
Signaling us
As we were cursing by
Not in the mood
For idle chat or hitchhike company
Nevertheless
We took them on as highway courtesy
Hurry get yourselves inside the truck
We’re just going up a ways
The rain should turn to mist
With any luck
And you can find a place to stay
The woman spoke
Her voice a blend
Of regional perfumes
We have no destination
The moon and stars
Provide us with our rooms
My boy and me
We’re refugees of sorts
From my home town
They don’t like different there
They would have moved us down
He doesn’t talk much anymore
Just to the voices in his head
The boy just gazed down at the floor
And nodded once or twice at what
She said
