lirik lagu son lux – black waters
[ryan lott]
i come from the mountains, kentucky’s my home
where the wild deer and black bear so lately did roam
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
by the cool rushing waterfall the wildflowers dream
and through every green valley, there runs a clear stream
now there’s scenes of destruction on every hand
and only black waters run down through my land
[ryan lott]
sad scenes of destruction on every hand
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
black waters, black waters, run down through my land
[ryan lott]
well, the quail, she’s a pretty bird and she sings a sweet tongue
in the roots of tall timber she nests with her young
but the hillside explodes with the dynamites roar
and the voices of small birds were sounding no more
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
and the mountain comes a sliding so awful and grand
and the flooding black waters rise over my land
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
sad scenes of destruction on every hand
black waters, black waters, run down through the land
[ryan lott]
in the rising of springtime we planted our corn
in the ending of springtime we buried our son
in the summer come a nice man says everything’s fine
my employer just requires a way to his mine
then they tore down my mountain and co’ered my corn
now the grave on the hillside ‘s a mile deeper down
and the man stands and talks with his hat in his hand
while the poisonous waters rise over my land
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
sad scenes of destruction on every hand
black waters, black waters, run down through the land
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
well i ain’t got no money, not much of a home
i own my own land, but my land’s not my own
but, if i had ten million, somewheres thereabout
i would buy perry county and throw them all out
and down on the banks with my bait and my can
and just watch the clear waters run down through my land
i come from the mountains, kentucky’s my home
where the wild deer and black bear so lately did roam
by the cool rushing waterfall the wildflowers dream
and through every green valley, there runs a clear stream
now there’s scenes of destruction on every hand
[ryan lott & tamara lindeman]
well, wouldn’t that be just like the old promised land?
black waters, black waters no more in my land
black waters, black waters no more in my land
