Banded Clovis |
| Tina Nolan had a man with a good place for siftin' |
| He invited me diggin', so I picked up my screen |
| And a shovel to dig and a jar of shine |
| He traded me fair for a bottle of wine |
| His brother’s Barnes Mountain wine |
| We trudged through the snow straight up the hillside |
| Took a ridge for a while, then we slowly went down |
| To an overhang hid from the ridgeline |
| We bent o’er our handles and we bit in the ground |
| The |
| dark and bloody ground |
| Was a bitch to break ground but the wine kept us goin' |
| The moonshine was flowin' and keepin' us warm |
| 'Cause you can’t hold a girl with a fistful of shovel |
| Got to find your fire in the company of corn |
| We dug for a while then it all turned to ashes |
| Found a bunch of broke flint and a few bits of bone |
| Then I heard Jesse yell o’er the pile he was sifting |
| Shook the hills like the angels were callin' us home |
| Jesse, Zachary come home |
| It was banded as hell, it was fluted and clovis |
| It was hot as the pistol I kept on my side |
| I was fiending so fierce, I was broke ass and busted |
| I pulled out my pistol and I took Jesse’s life |
