Jackson's In A Hole

(الألبوم: Palisade - 2012)

Jackson's down in a hole in Wyoming
He had a wife once, or at least that's what he told me
Drank his last one when he felt the walls start folding in
And his old car got thirty-five tears-a-mile 'til he had to fill her up again

Mary had a baby named Earnest
She carried him over by the furnace
And buried the feelings that burn us all
Earnest, he grew up just like his dad, a little wild and a little tall

Earnest, he has dreams about his father
Standing up against a mountain full of water
Well he bares his chest and the mountains grow taller and black
And they split wide and wash old Jackson south and the burden off of Mary's back

Nothin's gonna break these blues
Waking up to the Colorado news
Nothin's gonna break these blues
Waking up to the Colorado news
