Intro
Mm
Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
Verse 1
Sun climbs the ridge and I don't own a clock
Rivers run loud through the holler and the rock
My grandfather's shadow is a hand on the ground
I read the day the way it turns around
Pre-Chorus
No bell to break me
No wheel to race me
Chorus
Native time runs slow and true
Native time and the sky I knew
Wado brother
Wado friend
We begin where the daylight ends
Native time runs slow and true
Post-Chorus
Hey-ya hey-ya
Hey-ya hey-oh
Verse 2
A sundial's my watch and the cedar's my wall
Moss on the north side will answer when I call
Smoke from the fire tells me wind's coming in
Frogs start their talking when the evening begins
Pre-Chorus
No hand to hurry
No hour to worry
Chorus
Native time runs slow and true
Native time and the sky I knew
Wado brother
Wado friend
We begin where the daylight ends
Native time runs slow and true
Post-Chorus
Hey-ya hey-ya
Hey-ya hey-oh
Bridge
Bear walks the tree line
Bear knows the way
Bear keeps the season
Bear keeps the day
Bear don't wear a wristwatch
Bear don't need to say
Bear just keeps walking
And the hours obey
Breakdown
Wado
Wado
Sun go down
Sun come up
Wado
Wado
Fill the cup
Chorus
Native time runs slow and true
Native time and the sky I knew
Wado brother
Wado friend
We begin where the daylight ends
Native time runs slow and true
Post-Chorus
Hey-ya hey-ya
Hey-ya hey-oh
Hey-ya hey-ya
Hey-ya hey-oh
