Rose was born in the country but she dreamt of the sea
She lives with the best friend of a cobbler's son
Where they take care of their own

She walks freely through the farm missing feathers from her plume
Pushed from the flock she knows so she eats alone
Best friend on her own
And does she know that she has a soul?
And does she know where we all go?

Rose tucks her head in dark feathers to keep from the storm
She sits silent on the front porch watching it all go
And the fire burns
And the garden grows
And the children play
Through the orchard's moans

One day Rose left her porch and found the water running free
She jumped right in, tucked her feet and took that river to the sea
How does she know where we all go?
And how does she know that she has a soul?

This is a good song, but it's not really a play it every day kind of song.

Laurie Shook, Cyber Camel, Anna and the underbelly, Kyle Volkman, Katelyn Shook and Russ Kleinert
I would like to know which instrument Cyber Camel plays,  or the underbelly for that matter?

Never heard of them and I lived in Sandpoint and have been to the Festival several times. Thanks RP for playing a wonderful mix of music.

If I read the lyrics correctly, Rose, the heroine of the song, is a chicken or goose who lives in a barnyard.

Holy eiderdown, Batman!

I am reminded of a Steve Martin bit where he says that people ask him how he can be funny all the time and what he does when he's just not feeling funny, He replied "I put a piece of bologna in my shoe. That always makes me feel *funny*". A banjo always makes a song sound sound... well.... *funny*

Very nice. Has kind of a Roche Sisters sound.

Funny.  I was just thinking, "these girls are GOOD".  They I logged on to make a comment and see that this has already been noted.

Damned if I've got nothing new to add....

Quirky. Intriguing. Grabs the ears straight away. And very, very RP. Clucking excellent - 8 from the arrested Nottingham jury.
 
If the jury is arrested surely that's a mistrial? Har har.

Not that I disagree, definite 8...
