Charlie Parr Mastodon Lyrics

My daddy left home at 14 years
Gone to find his way
He left again when I was 25
This time gone to stay

I don't feel welcome around here, boys
I don't feel at home
This old world has brought me low
And made me to live all alone

I walked for miles and years
'Til I was lost and alone
Like a mastodon buried in the snow
And never found it's way home

I don't feel welcome around here, boys
I don't feel at home
This old world has brought me low
And made me to live all alone

Now I'm older and look like all the rest
Easy to be ignored
I'll wander free on this side of the fence
That separates the rich and poor

I don't feel welcome around here, boys
I don't feel at home
This old world has brought me low
And made me to live all alone

When I die don't you bury me at all
No coffin and no stone
Just leave me like a mastodon buried in the snow
Maybe someday I will be found

I don't feel welcome around here, boys
I don't feel at home
This old world has brought me low
And made me to live all alone
