Kentucky Mine
His eyes are greener than the meadows
His hair is greyer than a ghost
His lungs are blacker than the shadows
That dance in circles down below
You see them every Monday morning
Electric halos light their way
Five days of widows mourning
But Friday rolls the stone away
Chorus
Kentucky mine, doing time
Never see the light of day
Kentucky mine, stand in line
Just to dig your own grave
From coal dust they make a living
To coal dust they will return
The earth is good but unforgiving
And someone's got to keep the fire burnin'
Daddy says, “Listen to me,
Do not follow where my footsteps lead�
Chorus
And everything he said was true
But what's a Kentucky boy like me to do?
Chorus
We recommend: L'Odio Migliore
Life is such a funny thing
You never know what it'll bring
You know I'm just takin' it day by day
For you it comes so easily
For me it's just another fantasy
Cause nothing, nothing ever comes my way
I see you there, I watch you fly
If I could be you, I would touch the sky
But here I am, and there you are
Don't you know it's driving me
So crazy
I think I'm going crazy, can't take it anymore
Got one thing on my mind all the time
And it's driving me crazy, I think I'm going crazy
And I don't know what I'm doing
Ijust can't take your grace in my fac
You never know what it'll bring
You know I'm just takin' it day by day
For you it comes so easily
For me it's just another fantasy
Cause nothing, nothing ever comes my way
I see you there, I watch you fly
If I could be you, I would touch the sky
But here I am, and there you are
Don't you know it's driving me
So crazy
I think I'm going crazy, can't take it anymore
Got one thing on my mind all the time
And it's driving me crazy, I think I'm going crazy
And I don't know what I'm doing
Ijust can't take your grace in my fac
