yonder mountain string band – part 1 (lord only knows) [live] lyrics
ten years in jail was the sentence that they handed down
i didn’t like the odds that i would last that long
they turned their back and i was gone, gone, gone
just turned 18 and i’m looking at some real hard time
but i see it fadin’ in my rear view mirror
now its just me and these white lines
chorus:
lord only knows where i’m going
can’t remember the places i’ve been
or tell me if i’ll ever make it home again
apart from these troubles a mother’s all i leave behind
says i remind her of my father but h-ll if i know
he left town when i was three years old
oh, she did the best she could
i can’t help but feel i’m doing her wrong
she’ll be much better off now that i’m gone
i don’t much feel like hanging around
[ chorus ]
i can’t believe how bright the stars are shining
but then i can’t recall the last time i looked into the sky
and it seems to me if i make it ‘cross the county line
maybe my life will turn out fine
ten years in jail was the sentence that they handed down
