Jim Wise - Sun Kil Moon

　　Spent the day with my dad

　　And his old friend,

　　Jim wise. He's on house arrest

　　And he sits around inside.

　　We brought him food from panera bread,

　　The snoring sun rolled out of bed.

　　He talked about his ninety corvette,

　　His warehouse job,

　　And his knee replacement.

　　Jim wise mercy killed

　　His wife in a hospital at her bedside.

　　And he put the gun to his head

　　and it jammed and he didn't die.

　　He went to trial all summer long

　　And his eyes welled up

　　When he told us about

　　How much she loved the backyard garden

　　And the budding rosebush.

　　She loved the garden,

　　And its budding rosebush.

　　Spent the day with my dad,

　　And his friend jim wise.

　　Spent the day with my dad

　　And his old friend,

　　Jim wise. He's got a big thick ankle bracelet

　　And he can't go outside.

　　he's got a long white amish man's beard

　　And a catheter.

　　And he'll be headed to

　　Mansfield prison by the end of the year for sure.

　　His shelves are sticky old ratty boards.

　　His albums are the doors and stevie nicks.

　　his kitchen cabinets are full of baked beans.

　　His tv is sound, words flash across the screen

　　And he stares off into dead air.

　　Jim wise killed his wife out of love

　　for her at her bedside.

　　And then he put the gun to his head

　　But he failed at suicide.

　　his trial's coming up in the fall

　　And he sighed when we stepped out

　　And we left. And i pointed out the pretty

　　Cardinal perched on the empty birdbath.

　　The bright red cardinal,

　　The empty birdbath.

　　Spent today with my dad

　　And his friend jim wise.
