The Tale Of Colin Meloy
Helena, Montana would never be his home,
For he is the type who liked to roam.
If he continued with Tarkio and Happy Cactus,
For his bands to make it, he’d need more practice.
To the Rose City, he moved right away,
For Portland, Oregon was his home to stay.
When Colin Meloy was a spritely young buck,
He happened to meet a man called Chris Funk.
Both of their fans had started to wail,
“Make a band as soon as you’re able!”
With Funk’s hurdy-gurdy and Meloy’s guitar,
They played to small crowds at local bars.
With such small audiences, they began to worry,
They got new band mates in quite a hurry.
