He combines poetic lyricism and softly assertive vocals to make each track both a meditation on youthful hopefulness and coming-of-age nostalgia.
Lyrics
COME OUT TO MEET ME
Come out to meet me, Boy,
as soon as the sun wakes up
it's time, time to get to workin', Boy.
So fetch your father's hat
and fill your mother's eye
'cause the workin' wakes the man within the boy.
Boy, I will work those hands
as sure as the horses stand,
until your shoes are fit for running.
So ask all your questions, Boy,
as long as you’re an honest boy,
the workin' wakes the words within the wise.
Don't get to thinkin', Boy,
that what's worth knowin's known
'cause it's time, time to get to livin', Boy.
So fetch your father's hat
and fill your mother's eye
'cause the workin' wakes the way in which we walk.
