lyrics

I've spent thirty years of my life
Pulling four twelves
Digging so deep
Knocking on the back door to hell
Man can't make no money
Working this way
Providing her the life from a magazine


Gabriel I'm waiting on your trumpets to sound
Spare me another day of hell underground
Be better off if I was laying down town a
corpse
Lord I need a change of pace
before the roof caves in and buries this place
Cause I spend most my days
Tending To My Grave


Thirty Seven more payments
and this truck is mine
they can pick it up tomorrow
I'm done with the mines
Cant go to church on Sunday
Cant Sing in the choir
I'll belong to the company
until the day I die


Gabriel I'm waiting on your trumpets to sound
Spare me another day of hell underground
Be better off if I was laying down town a
corpse
Lord I need a change of pace
before the roof caves in and buries this place
Cause I spend most my days
Tending To My Grave


Gabriel I'm waiting on your trumpets to sound
Spare me another day of hell underground
Be better off if I was laying down town a
corpse
Lord I need a change of pace
Before the roof caves in and buries this place
Cause I spend most my days
Tending To My Grave

Waylon Nelson Pikeville, Kentucky

A blasphemous bluegrass guitar rhythm played over Appalachian inspired vocal melodies and lyrics that represent the struggle of 21st century millennial from the mountains. It's been a hard fought battle to produce such a sound, but after years of comparing myself to others and never feeling good enough, I have discovered that if you want to follow your dreams, you have to be your on yardstick. ... more
