There is a tree , flowers in spring White cherry buds, 22 rings I helped her grow, but have never seen Carolina winter or Aberdeen From the Missisippi Floodgates my body churned Up the river delta my mother yearned To taste the sweetness of her pain Fallin do...

I built this heart, like an aged pine I built this heart, like a wild mountain cave I built this heart, tangled up in tall vines I built this heart, like the summer rain I saw the light, burnt a hole through the darkness I followed you home, but kept hold of...

Stranger you call in early day You came as I rose from bed Sit a while I’ll let you stay The cold outside is bitter Though you can’t tell now My hair used to be Yellow like the stalks of hay in our field My palms rough from years sowing seed My skin was brown...

Bending over, pickin’ stones They grow with every fallow If I had the time I’d rest my bones In the water. And I’ve laid many a tear on this land And I’ve buried them with my children. So when I die won’t you lay me in the clay, right here, where I can hold th...

Standing on the floor in the “City of the Spindles” Got me a job, lift me up to the middle The Offering painted a very pretty picture Work at the mills held a promise of the Scripture But a girl like me was worked to the bone Our fingers bled an...

Drivin' down the road again, dust settled on my mind, put 'er into overdrive, but I'm still keepin' time you know I'm headed, headed down that yellow line. I stopped by a hiker, thumb in the road, got a good look but left 'cause you know what I'm told, you go...

Empire sits on the edge of a hill Born out of a gypsum mine Held at once 300 souls And none of them were mine Now they’re just ghosts in the streets Wandering a land that sleeps Once it was a lively place Now just tumbleweeds The houses they are silent Quiet...

Light’s low as the fire dies My hand on a pistol, lonely at my side I’m lost now my husband out the door He took the children with him He can’t take it anymore Told me he’d come home Come back again if I let the liquor go, but I can’t let go my sit ‘Cause I...

The shackles I wear not made from a chain They make but a whisper in the dead of night Without a sound I find myself bound To wander the place where I was alive And you, my friend, have come on an errand I know that you have a story like I did But no one can...

Where do you go when the light is low When your ship is sinking When the storm explodes When your heart it lingers On one sad kiss When the sun is red Through the mist I've sailed with "The Anne" for twenty years from the blue of the Indies to the waters of W...

The sun sets at quarter ‘till 4 The snow is a'piling at my door Snowed in but I don’t seem mind What I needed was a little bit of time To put the letters that you wrote me in the fire Oh and they ain’t comin back Where did you go my Jaime dear Sittin by the w...

Early in the morning Before you leave Just before dawn Just after a dream Our eyes barely open Legs tangled in sheets I’ve never felt love so tenderly We lay like lovers Lay like stones Lay in the darkness and let the time pass Like a stream Till it turns us...

She was a lover, a daughter she is loved, she is alone, loved but alone her restless blood, and angsty bones growing weary with the time, weary all the time Maybeline, Maybeline All the loving years now you're left behind. Maybeline, Maybeline What will becom...

Why must you wait? Why must you wait? Why must you wait for the sky to fall? Your brittle fingers, your eyes I recall your shy heart and your stone walls, why must I wait when you have not called? You've never been kissed, never been kissed never been kissed...

Word came from up the road Polk County is filled with gold the air is sweet the river's low they say the livin's fine. There a man can wave his hand, an ounce of gold in the pan pack the wagon and the bride start a better life. Look down the river the water...

Verona left when she was only 16 She gave no reason but needing to fly She joined up with a traveling band, and lady luck she took her hand Left all of her demons behind She wove her unabashed story All throughout the south Verona she carried the truth of a c...

Touch me with your fingers, touch me with your toes Make love with the window open So everybody knows That we’re finding a new pastime, without any of our clothes I’m drinking in your skin dear, like nobody else knows Come back to bed dear, I want you the mos...

This world oft can be a down and lonesome place to be I hear the knock at my door and I know that you’ve come to me Hang up your coat up on a peg in the wall Set up your feet and stay for a while The lines on your face tell me something’s troubling Has the da...
