letra de sarah - upstate
sarah moved down to harlan county
found no work and found no bounty
took her share to feed her kin
and kept em clear of medicine
what rotten shape they keep us in
when mama couldn’t live alone
sarah brought her family home
with emma’s baby due in june
four generations, two bedrooms
and not one godd-mn thing to do
can’t this world get its use outta me
i’m just like a daisy underneath a canopy
with sunlight always out of reach
the years had slowed the foundry down
so sarah tended bar in town
it was such a fight to pry the doors
gettin’ women workin’ on the floors
no they don’t make nothin’ anymore
can’t this world get its use outta me
i’m just like a daisy underneath a canopy
with sunlight always out of reach
there’s not a dream left in my head
except to give more than i take
but these walls are painted lead
and my spirit’s shak(en/in)
mama passed in ’93
tommy got his ged
emma left and married young
a man content to raise her son
but sarah had nowhere to run
so with nothing left to make her stay
sarah thought she’d move away
but as she combed through locks of greying hair
the mirror seemed to catch her stare
no there’s no sense going anywhere
can’t this world get its use outta me
i’m just like a daisy underneath a canopy
with sunlight always out of reach
she wondered
can’t this world get its use outta me
i’m just a like baby left to swing under a tree
the sunlight never gets to me
