Creek

歌詞

The sky was as black as the water And you could choke on the breeze And the coal miner's daughters They were shouting from the trees Come on come on And stop staring like a dead man Come on come on Baby take my hand No goodbyes, no sympathy One by one they were gone Lord I ain't never felt so weak Since the day the damn broke Down at buffalo creek "Hey don't you know, we ain't got no place We ain't got no place to go Hey yeah, don't you know, we ain't go no place to go" I feel as naked as the day I was born I was marked by a bad sign My daddy kicked the bucket in the second world war My momma drowned in the tears sent down by the lord They said "come on come on, You gotta find some higher ground Come on come on You ain't got time to be standing around" No goodbyes, no sympathy One by one they were gone Lord I ain't never felt so weak Since the day the damn broke Down at buffalo creek "Hey don't you know, we ain't got no place We ain't got no place to go Hey yeah, don't you know, we ain't go no place to go" I lost my momma I lost my kin In the black black river Makes a man shiver Again and again and again
