The Family |
| The weevils all took to cotton and cows all took to dry |
| But the varmints left behind, some took up to die |
| Trouble took to Daddy like dew drops take to night |
| Mama took to cryin' a lot and Daddy took to wine |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help, maybe |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| Flowers took to Daddy and Daddy, he took to calm |
| Sister took to black wheel nights and Mama cried alone |
| Brother, he took up preaching and the bank man took the farm |
| They came and took my mom away, she can’t do herself no harm |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help, maybe |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| Heaven help the tie that binds a family |
| The weevils all took to cotton and cows all took to dry |
| But the varmints left behind, some took up to die |
| Trouble took to Daddy like dew drops take to night |
| Mama took to cryin' a lot and Daddy took to wine |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help handy |
| Looks like even God can’t save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help handy |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help handy |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| And I took a train outta there |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help handy |
| Looks like even God can’t save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| And I took a train outta there, you hear me |
| I told the engineer I don’t believe there? |
| s no help handy |
| Looks like even God can’t save the family |
| Looks like even God can’t save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
| Looks like only God can save the family |
