Zachary |
| Collecting coal in the pit |
| While my father watches by |
| Ain’t no god that sees me fit |
| I hide my fortune in the rye |
| Watch the Winter come and go |
| See the trees reach out to Spring |
| Let the sun dry up the streams |
| See what harvesting will bring |
| And I lay down in the shadow of the mountain |
| Blackened by time and rain |
| And I raise my palms to the fire |
| Hope my hands could work again |
| A holy man builds a well |
| Lifting water from the sand |
| A traveling man begs him to sell |
| A portion of his land |
| He says «This is holy water |
| And all I want for it in return |
| Is the contents of your pocket |
| And a Bible I can burn» |
| And I lay down in the shadow of the mountain |
| Blackened by time and rain |
| And I raise my palms to the fire |
| Hope my hands could work again |
| And I lay down in the shadow of the mountain |
| Blackened by time and rain |
| And I raise my palms to the fire |
| Hope my hands could work again |
