‘Bottles & Bibles' |
Tyler Childers |
I bought a house at the mouth of the holler, a ring at the pawn shop, |
and a crib for the kid |
I heard some word there was work up in Hindman |
I’m going tomorrow and hope that there is |
My sweat and my wages they don’t seem to weight out |
I’m gettin' more aches than I’m gainin' in gold |
Whoever said you could raise you a family just a’workin' your ass off knee deep |
in coal? |
Well the sign at the church says I’ll reap what I’m sowin' |
But I ain’t lost sleep because it’ll come in due time |
If the Lord wants to take me I’m here for the taking. |
' |
Cause hell’s probably better than tryin' to get by |
You can see me on the front page |
It’ll be out tomorrow |
A boy in his 20's, shot down in his prime |
For trying to hold up the Texaco station |
They’ll say I was desperate |
They’re probably right |
I bought a house at the mouth of the holler, a ring at the pawn shop, |
and a crib for the kid |
I heard some word there was work up in Hindman |
I’m going tomorrow and hope that there is |
