tony logue - life's blood lyrics

Loading...

i heard tires cutting red rock
the truck said tva
i saw daddy take the papers
told him we couldn’t stay
momma stood there steady
said daddy when we gonna leave
he just shook his head and slammed the door
said we won’t bargain with thieves

[chorus]
we ain’t gonna back down
we ain’t gonna back down
you wanna fight boy stick around
we ain’t gonna back down

we got word this morning
how they fooled ms. babe
they hauled her down to grand rivers
they set her whole house ablaze
they left a pile of rubble
with all she owned inside
daddy said rest easy
he’ll be on watch tonight

[chorus]
we ain’t gonna back down
we ain’t gonna back down
stakes our life’s blood on this ground
we ain’t gonna back down

it’s all in the name of progress
that’s what the agents say
while they’re handing out letters
all signed by jfk
turns out his bootlegging daddy
he couldn’t make the sale
now jr’s gonna put the cap
back on the moonshine well

[chorus]
