child of god lyrics
lucille never knew, when our family came
they’re still pulling bones from the black phelps county clay
there’s stories of the cumberland, and a fight some shawnee braves, cut free of the mud to a land that burns the rain
my great grandfather joe, he ran cattle on these plains
at night, he’d sit and carve a horse from a cut of green osage
and he’d rarely say a word, he had a calm and gentle way
helped his daddy stack the blue stem so they’d have a place to lay
and he knew a dollar bill can’t hold a flame to a cord of cut wood
there’s men alive and they would leave you cold if they could
they don’t know the worth of what they trade away
this black clay is gonna swallow up everything the lord don’t take
a daughter of depression, no stranger to hard times
she knew the sound of trouble bound to roll right down the line
haunted by the dustbowl and the sins of 29
well i’d watch them crooked fingers threading through her garden vines
she knew a dollar bill won’t see you through like a cellar full of food
putting by for staving off the cold midwinters blues
some don’t know the worth of what they stand to lose, this black clay is gonna swallow up everything the lord can’t use
everything that the lord can’t use. try as we might, we’re all bound to lose
because there is weak, and there is strong
son there’s only right, and only wrong
looking back she saw the signs from her front porch at sunrise, she felt the pain of good man slain across the allied lines
she held to the wheel, sent a prayer up from the field
lord if it’s your plan, won’t you save a good man for me
because she knew a dollar bill won’t hold you through a night so long and low
there’s things that ain’t for sale, and there’s a wealth that you can’t hold
we all know the pain of a child of god alone
and this black clay is gonna swallow up everything the lord don’t own
well this black clay is gonna swallow up everything the lord don’t own
