josiah and the bonnevilles - appalachia (on the back porch) lyrics
[verse 1]
far too many times i’ve held it in
appalachian rage in the northbound wind
my mind is growing strong but my body’s wearing thin
i can’t turn this thing around
but you might see it every now and then
appalachian sorrow running down my skin
thinkin’ of tomorrow, somethings that might have been
i’m just trying to live it down
oh, i’m just trying to live it down
[chorus]
when they lay my body in the green, green grass
i will whisper secrets to the animals that pass
’bout the times i know i swore i was never coming back
but i lied
i am appalachia
oh, i lied
i am appalachia
[verse 2]
wake up to find that i’ve outgrown my friends
our seeds grew side by side, but my roots grew thin
then one day i blew away in autumn’s restless wind
she has never set me down
alone, i wing my way through winter storms
spring brought new life and summer down it was torn
there was blood on my mama’s knees from talking to the lord
he won’t let me wash it out
oh, he won’t let me wash it out
[chorus]
when they lay my body in the green, green grass
i will whisper secrets to the animals that pass
’bout the times i walked away, ’bout the times i ran back
’cause inside
i am appalachia
oh, inside
i am appalachia
[outro]
lay my body in the green, green grass
in the green, green grass i’m coming back
lay my body in the green, green grass
in the green, green grass i’m coming back
i’m coming back
