Black Sky lyrics

(HARP & GUITAR INTRO)



well I sure take it with me wherever I go



and you might like to see it but it never does show



like a wind in the valley that never does blow



like the grass in the back that you never did mow



it`s a black sky formin` on the ridge



it`s a woman waitin` standin` on the bridge



it`s the price that you pay for walkin` on the ledge



it`s everything you do and nothin` that you did



(HARP & GUITAR DITTY)







well you might see me drivin` in the wrong side of town



and you might see me shinin` when the rain`s comin` down



like a diamond that`s hidin` in the lost and found



like a coon that`s runnin` from a red bone hound



it`s a black sky formin` on the ridge



it`s a woman waitin` standin` on the bridge



it`s the price that you pay for walkin` on the ledge



it`s everything you do and nothin` that you did



(HARP & GUITAR DITTY)







well the wood keeps burnin` in the old wood stove



and the cows keep goin` where they done been drove



and a light keeps glowin` in a dead man`s cove



and a loom keeps spinnin` where the weave gets wove



it`s a black sky formin` on the ridge



it`s a woman waitin` standin` on the bridge



it`s the price that you pay for walkin` on the ledge



it`s everything you do and nothin` that you did
