lucinda williams - pineola (2017) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when daddy told me what happened
i couldn’t believe what he just said
sonny shot himself with a .44
and they found him lyin’ on his bed

[verse 2]
i could not speak a single word
no tears streamed down my face
i just sat there on the living room couch
starin’ off into sp+ce

[verse 3]
mama and daddy went over to the house
to see what had to be done
they took the sheets off of the bed
and they went to call someone

[verse 4]
some of us gathered at a friend’s house
to help each othеr ease the pain
i just sat alonе in a corner chair
i couldn’t say much of anything

[verse 5]
we drove on out to the country
his friends all stood around
subiaco cemetery
that’s where we laid him down
[verse 6]
i saw his mama, she was standin’ there
his sister, she was there too
i saw them look at us standin’ around the grave
and not a soul they knew

[verse 7]
born and raised in pineola
his mama believed in the pentecost
she got the preacher to say some words
so his soul wouldn’t be lost

[guitar solo]

[verse 8]
some of us, we stood in silence
some bowed their heads and prayed
i think i must’ve picked up a handful of dust
then i let it fall over his grave
i think i must’ve picked up a handful of dust
then i let it fall over his grave

[guitar solo]
