Ozark Mountain Daredevils - Black Sky lyrics

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
