Описание: Hi folks, this one is a bit of a mixed genre and is nice and upbeat, kind of about old time miners past and gone...

just having fun with technology

enjoy or not ..lol....have a great day :-) :-)


(Mmmmmm-hmmmm.......)

Sold my soul to a shovel and a rusted chain
Digging for a dollar in the pouring rain
The mud is rising and the light is getting thin
Lord, forgive me for the shape I'm in
Mississippi water running cold as lead
The ghosts of the delta are the only ones fed

Oh, the weight is heavy, the road is long
Singing the rhythm of a dead man's song
Buried in the bottom where the shadows dwell
One foot in the river, one foot in...

The sky turned black when the clock struck three
Something in the hollow started calling for me
I felt the thunder in the hollow of my chest
A heart made of iron, it don't need no rest
The wind is a-howling like a hungry hound
I’m taking this shovel to the higher ground

Oh, the weight is heavy, the road is long
Singing the rhythm of a dead man's song
Buried in the bottom where the shadows dwell
One foot in the river, one foot in hell!

The rain stopped falling.
But the thunder?
The thunder’s just getting started.
