letra de charcoal suit - jacob danielsen-moore
[verse 1]
virgil collins had some acreage
back in the devil’s mile
had only been inside his family
for just a little while
he fell every tree and built the house
re-reaised his boys
[verse 2]
then a man came in the holler
we didn’t know his draw
with a quarter million dollars
and an offer for us all
said “the railroad wants to build
you’ll never have to work again”
[chorus]
and the road that he was walking on was misery and loss
deserving jail, deserving h-ll, no one could stand the cost
suitcase full of dollars from the belly of the gods
paper, ink and sorrow
charcoal suit and all
[verse 3]
well the boys looked for the father
after a couple days
they found him out in the gap
his body had been flayed
his hands were hammered down
bramble growing out of his mouth
[verse 4]
and the people couldn’t believe it
or even understand
how one single person
could do this to a man
it had to be the devil
“work of the railroad man” they said
[chorus]
’cause the road that he was walking on was misery and loss
deserving jail, deserving h-ll, no one could stand the thought
suitcase full of dollars from the belly of the gods
paper, ink and sorrow
charcoal suit and all
[verse 5]
well, millie lived in hogskin
my mom called her a seer
she only left to take the hogs to slaughter
once or twice a year
said the devil came to her
he was walking aorund in plain sight
[verse 6]
they found her in the coal chute with a belly full of dust
her fingernails were missing
and her t–th were full of rust
her head was twisted back
her name was on the dotted line
[chorus]
and the road that he is travelling on is misery and loss
deserving jail, deserving h-ll, no one could stand the thought
suitcase full of dollars from the belly of the gods
paper, ink and sorrow
charcoal suit and all
and the road that he is travelling on is misery and loss
deserving jail, deserving h-ll, no one could stand the fall
suitcase full of dollars from the belly of the gods
paper, ink and sorrow
charcoal suit and all
