laurel hell’s ramblers – oh (field recording) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, tell me brother
what have i done?
i’ve gone and i’ve k!lled
our daddy’s first son
many years ago
back in those hills
was born a prodigal son
with big boots to fill
he learned not to fight
he took it on the chin
he was raised up right
on old baptist hymns

[verse 2]
oh, tell me sister
what have i done?
i’ve gone and i’ve k!lled
our daddy’s first son
he was out all alone
turning over stones
where i found that poor boy
and i led him on home
he didn’t put up a fight
he didn’t beg for his life
he just sat there starin’
as i plunged in that knife
[verse 3]
oh, tell me mama
what will they say?
do you think they think
i’ve led the family astray?
will they see him layin’
fine clay on my hands
will they value me less
than they did that young man?

[verse 4]
oh, tell me daddy
can you ever forgive
the death of your son
so you daughter could live?
