Someone left a child and did not even care Before the first shots of the battle here had even pierced the air They run now like them children to those arms of mother earth To pretend as if there was a day before their very birth
Me, I just grab these ropes that me and mine have left behind And I stare up to that mountain that I know we got to climb I keep towin' that line Mmmmmm I keep towin' that line Mmmmmm
Down in basements choked with smoke, child, of the past Dreams come up for air down there but they can only gasp All them old men they sit staring as life slips out of their grips Only to fall and disappear beyond their fingertips
Me, I just grab these ropes me and mine have left behind And I stare up to demon that you know has got to die I keep towin that line Mmmmmm I keep towin' that line Mmmmmm
I keep towin' that line Mmmmmm I keep towin' that line Mmmmmm
Down in ditches by that road I call my home All of you come a cussin' now and all just throwing stones Yes they're big men now to settle down and life's so stale and cold As if I could ever do the way they do just as they're told
Which should find me living low when the miles have passed me by And it seems that I have left now all that I could love behind I'm just towin' that line Mmmmmm I'm just towin' that line MmmmmmTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
