| [01:00.89] |
Cross the border they turn water into wine |
| [01:05.91] |
Some say it's the devil's blood |
| [01:09.52] |
They squeezing from the vine |
| [01:12.11] |
Some say it's a savior |
| [01:15.04] |
In these hard and deseprated times |
| [01:18.16] |
It seems to help me to forget |
| [01:21.60] |
And we're just born to die |
| [01:39.43] |
I came here like so many did |
| [01:42.38] |
To find a better life |
| [01:45.40] |
To find my piece of easy street |
| [01:48.58] |
To finally be alive |
| [01:50.85] |
I know nothing good comes easy |
| [01:54.27] |
All good things take some time |
| [01:57.23] |
I made my bed and I'll lie in it |
| [02:00.50] |
To die in its crime |
| [02:03.21] |
You can't help but prosper |
| [02:06.05] |
Where the streets are paved with gold |
| [02:08.94] |
They say the oil wells ran deeper here |
| [02:12.52] |
Than anybody's known |
| [02:15.07] |
Now I packed up on my wife and kids and left them back at home |
| [02:20.85] |
See there's nothing in this paydirt |
| [02:24.07] |
The ghosts are all I know |
| [04:02.98][02:26.95] |
Now the oil's gone |
| [04:05.66][02:29.59] |
And the money's gone |
| [04:09.01][02:32.66] |
All the jobs are gone |
| [04:11.73][02:35.75] |
Still we're hanging on |
| [04:14.70][02:38.64] |
Down in |
| [08:27.33][08:15.25][04:15.99][02:39.90] |
Dry county |
| [04:18.15][02:42.03] |
They were swimming in the sand |
| [04:20.93][02:44.41] |
Praying for some holy waters |
| [04:24.48][02:48.59] |
To wash these sins from off our hands |
| [08:02.54][04:28.22][02:51.85] |
Here in dry county |
| [08:04.87][04:30.76][02:53.95] |
The promise has run dry |
| [08:07.72][04:33.55][02:57.29] |
Where nobody cries |
| [08:23.68][08:10.72][04:36.36][03:00.08] |
And no one's getting out of here alive |
| [03:14.65] |
In the blessed name of Jesus |
| [03:18.40] |
I heard the preacher say |
| [03:21.21] |
That we are all god's children |
| [03:24.40] |
And he'll back someday |
| [03:27.70] |
I hope that he knew something as he drinks that cup of wine |
| [03:33.45] |
That I don't have to have too good of feelings |
| [03:36.16] |
As I head out to the night |
| [03:38.64] |
I cursed the sky to open |
| [03:42.03] |
I begged the clouds for rain |
| [03:45.08] |
I prayed to god for water |
| [03:47.93] |
For it's burning in my vain |
| [03:50.87] |
It was like my soul's on fire |
| [03:54.41] |
Now I have to watch the flames |
| [03:56.83] |
All my dreams went up in ashes |
| [03:59.97] |
And my future blew away |
| [07:20.88] |
Men spent their whole life waiting praying for some big reward |
| [07:26.25] |
It seem sometimes they pay off leaves |
| [07:30.34] |
You feeling like a dirty hole |
| [07:32.90] |
If I could choose the way I'll die |
| [07:35.96] |
Make it by the gun or knife |
| [07:38.60] |
'Cause the other ways there's too much pain |
| [07:42.14] |
Night after night after night after night.... |
| [07:49.88] |
Down in dry county |
| [07:53.29] |
They're swimming in the sand |
| [07:55.82] |
Praying for some holy water |
| [07:58.69] |
To wash the sins from off our hand |
| [08:30.83] |
(No~~) |
