red tail ring - shale town lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
made of muscle, shone like metal
stranger came by
asked to rent a quarter mile
i was hungry and young
and the pantry was bare
the land man held me, he said the money was fair
momma, can’t you see i’m dreamin’ mercy?

[verse 2]
he couldn’t leave it, he couldn’t leave us
with money underground
everything’s shakin’ since the well went down
the wrecked thing down deep
is bound to show up on top
you’ll be long gone by then, workin’ the next job
momma, can’t you see i’m bleedin’ mercy?

[verse 3]
i used to lay in the clear waters
but these are brown
that’s all he left in my shale town
he’s a lawless kid with a big water gun
just leave it be, you don’t know what you’ve done
momma, can’t you see i’m all wasted now, mercy?
momma, can’t you see i’m dreamin’ mercy?
