zachary lucky - damned old piney mountains lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
sit down buddy, we’ll drink and smoke
woman, don’t you weep for me
my hands can’t fiddle and my heart’s been broke
those d+mned old piney mountains
i lost my fingers in a galax mill
oh buddy, sing a sad, old song
my heart got broke in the yew pine hills
lord, and my time ain’t long

[verse 2]
i started out logging, i was in my prime
woman, don’t you weep for me
was hitchin’ up spruce to the big drag+lines
those d+mned old piney mountains
the skidders start a+buckin’ as the years come down
buddy, sing a sad, old song
makin’ god’s own thunder on the new+cut ground
lord, and my time ain’t long

[verse 3]
we was fightin’ over nothin’ and drinking too hard
woman, don’t you weep for me
ridin’ up to camp on the flat wheel car
those d+mned old piney mountains
thirty years a+hangin’ on the old chain brake
buddy, sing a sad, old song
i laid off and paid off in ’58
lord, and my time ain’t long
[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
the skidders got sold to the scr+p+iron yard
woman, don’t you weep for me
i moved down virginia when the times got hard
those d+mned old piney mountains
i lost my fingers to a steel bandsaw
buddy, sing a sad, old song
now my fiddle just hangs, untuned on the wall
lord, and my time ain’t long

[verse 5]
the trees have grown up on the logging row
woman, don’t you weep for me
wildflowers bloom where the big shays blow
those d+mned old piney mountains
there’s nothin’ left for me but to drink and smoke
buddy, sing a sad, old song
my hands can’t fiddle and my heart’s been broke
lord, and my time ain’t long

[outro]
my hands can’t fiddle and my heart’s been broke
lord, and my time ain’t long
