Daddy died back in ‘89
We were far from momma's mind
It showed
She quit comin' home
Johnny and I took to the mines
It didn’t pay well but it bought us time, and smokes
And a little hope
All I recall is a thick black cloud
I could hear the screams
I could feel the ground shake
It was the worst case
I can still hear Johnny say
I can feel death creepin in on me
Tellin' little lies that sound so sweet
A hard lesson learned or another bridge burned
Only way to figure it out
When daylight breaks, hit the ground runin'
Get back home and don’t stop for nothin'
Let that water flow through the front door
I pray that muddy river saves your soul
I’m headed home
It’s been 4 years since Johnny died
I can’t believe they closed the mines, for good
I never thought they would
Lack of work I’d all but lost the farm
No one said it would be this hard
Was goin' outta my mind
I heard talk that pills were gold
It was my last shot before the land was sold
On my behalf
But I was hooked myself
I can feel death creepin' in on me
Tellin' little lies that sound so sweet
A hard lesson learned or another bridge burned
Only way to figure it out
When daylight breaks, I’ll hit the ground runnin'
Get back home and wont stop for nothin'
Let that water flow through the front door
I pray that muddy river saves my soul
I’m headed home
I could feel death creepin' in on me
Tellin' little lies that sound so sweet
A hard lesson learned or another bridge burned
Only way to figure it out
When daylight broke, I hit the ground runnin'
Got back home I didn’t stop for nothin'
Let that water flow through the front door
That muddy river couldn’t save my soul
I made it home
I made it home
