lirik lagu eli conley - dry as sin (2011)
[verse 1]
they’re building prisons in appalachia, where my family comes from
to house poor brown folks from the city, far away from their homes
and the only other job you can find
is in the dregs of the old coal mine
[chorus]
they’re building coal plants in virginia again
right next to prisons caging thousands of black and brown men
and my poor white family is guarding them
as the coal dust sticks tight to their lungs, dry as sin
[verse 2]
well senator byrd put his stock in a lie
coal will be clean when donkeys do fly
and mountains that stretched to the creeks from the clouds
are craters of dirt, like wide gaping mouths
[chorus]
they’re building coal plants in virginia again
right next to prisons caging thousands of black and brown men
and my poor white family is guarding them
as the coal dust sticks tight to their lungs, dry as sin
[bridge]
when the rain rolls off the bare mountain tops
the creeks turn to sludge and the fish flop on the moss
[verse 3]
we are never too far from the valley of death
but these holes in the hills bring us all closer yet
name each white man a cop, name each brown man a thief
and you’ve paved every back road with certainmost grief
[chorus]
they’re building coal plants in virginia again
right next to prisons caging thousands of black and brown men
and my poor white family is guarding them
as the coal dust sticks tight to their lungs, dry as sin
dry as sin
