They've Trapped Us Boys

(álbum: Women + Country - 2010)

Gentlemen where have we been?
Can't find the hole where we got in
We ain't had no letters since spring
Gentlemen where have we been?
Ain't going nowhere now
Now let this bottle make its rounds
And let this liquor settle down
We ain't going nowhere now

Darker than ever in the mine
Now shine a light, shine a light
Now holler back now make some noise
I do believe they've trapped us boys

Now fill the dirt back on the grave
Ain't nothing good here being raised
I look at the filthy mess we've made
Fill the dirt back on the grave

We cut the fruit, we took the tree
We chiseled all the branches free
We took more than we'd ever need
Yeah we cut the fruit and we took the tree

It's darker than ever in the mine
Now shine a light, shine a light
Now holler back now make some noise
I do believe they've trapped us boys

Can't have no one not toe the line
'Round here it's always 'round midnight
We can't have no brothers left behind
We can't have no one not toe the line

That ain't the cavalry we heard
It's the rain that's crashing on the earth
Now tell our women and our children we ain't hurt
But no that ain't the cavalry we heard

It's darker than ever in the mine
Shine a light, shine a light
Now holler back now make some noise
I do believe they've trapped us boys
