Cody Jinks - Curse the Sky lyrics

Sometimes in the summer, it'll lightnin'
It'll thunder but the rain don't seem to
Come it rolls on by
Thunder sounds like laughter
As the lightning hit's the
Pasture and you know
That has lands been dry for some time
And it burns and it burns, oh it burns

The river it stopped flowin' back
Through town some time ago
And the train tracks rest below
A bed of weeds
The truck stop shut it's door on the day that
Oil hit a hundred and four dollars a barrel
Yall then the grocery store came
Next and then the bank

And it burns oh it burns, it burns
Oh it burns, yeah it burns, oh it burns

You do the things you know to just
To make it by the day
You can hear the kids a cryin'
But there's just no time to play you work the
Way you know how just the way you've
Always done and you'd like to curse the skies
That bring no rain and block the Sun

And it burns

Sometimes when it's rainin' and there
Seems there ain't no stoppin'
And a storm surge rushes past
And all goes down
That river roars with laughter as it
Strips away the pasture land
The home you built and work
For your own hands

And it rains, oh it rains, yeah it rains
And it rains, oh it rains, yeah it rains

You do the things you know to just
To make it by the day
You can hear the kids a cryin'
But there's just no time
To play you work the way
You know how just the
Way you've always done and you'd like
To curse the skies that
Bring the rain and block the Sun and it rains

Sometimes in the summer it'll lightnin'
It'll thunder but the rain don't seem to
Come it rolls on by
