Kentucky Gold

(альбом: Whiskey Myers - 2019)

Waking up early going back down
Black coffee black lung underground
This much money ain't even worth counting
Hand to mouth this side of the mountain

The creek used to run clear across the tracks
Till Peabody came and it all turned black
The diamonds we digging
Don't sparkle or shine
Wasting away in a rich mans mine

West Virginia Kentucky gold
Feed your family sell your soul
Dying young never growing old
For that West Virginia Kentucky gold

Wake up every morning
Kiss my kids goodbye
And whisper to my beautiful wife
If today's the day
That I should go
Don't leave me down in that damn hole

West Virginia Kentucky gold
Feed your family sell your soul
Dying young never growing old
For that West Virginia Kentucky gold

Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
Don't leave me down in that damn hole
When it all caves in when the walls won't hold

West Virginia Kentucky gold
Feed your family sell your soul
Dying young never growing old
For that West Virginia Kentucky gold

For that West Virginia Kentucky gold
For that West Virginia Kentucky gold
Kentucky gold
