Featured song from 2017's Refuge LP
Paw Paw was a Quiet Man
Paw Paw was a quiet man,
Everyone just knew—
He would never say a word
If it weren't true.
Everyone just knew—
He would never say a word
If it weren't true.
Evening milk and cornbread,
Just "knockin' old Joe"
He'd stretch out his long old legs
Wiggle his toes.
Just "knockin' old Joe"
He'd stretch out his long old legs
Wiggle his toes.
Paw Paw, take me fishin'
Let's see what might bite.
Paw Paw is this worm okay?
Do I have my hook tied tight?
Paw Paw, why ain't I catching anything?
He pulled back his big old grin
And said, "You ain't holdin' your mouth right."
Let's see what might bite.

Maw Maw talked a blue streak,
Paw Paw listened long.
He married her and loved her good...
Even when she was wrong.
Paw Paw listened long.

Even when she was wrong.
His politics were his alone to know,
His only sermon was his life.
But if he chose to speak his mind,
It cut the babble like a knife.

He's been gone for 27 years now,
I miss him just the same.
There's things in life so stubborn now,
Can't talk my way out of everything...
I miss him just the same.
There's things in life so stubborn now,

Paw Paw is this job okay?
When's the right time to fight?
Paw Paw, see my children?
Paw Paw, see my wife?
Paw Paw, why is life so hard?
He pulls back his big old grin
And says, "Maybe you ain't holdin' your mouth right."
