lirik lagu shale walls – sledge man san
[hook: ammie queen]
just when i think that i have ’em all
there’s always something hidden behind these shale walls
these shale walls
if they should crumble if they should fall
would anyone find what’s hidden behind these shale walls
could we know what’s here at all, behind these shale walls
[verse 1: sledge man san]
i’m workin’ down the bank of the creek on the steep side headin’ in
so if you think you got ’em all better look again
we gonna bring it usin’ every ounce of power
in an hour we’ll fulfill an eighty-million-year fantasy
waitin’ on erosion that ain’t my way
i go and i strain to obtain the crack chisel and pry way
never faded s’why there’s trophys on the mantelpiece
and they still shine in spite of haters that will never cease
see any damage to a shale bed is not a big concern to me
when fossils otherwise be lost to science for eternity
ya know that’s why i’ve always gone collectin’ in my area
still play the game but what i tell you can’t prepare you
for that personal discovery too authentic for words
as made through the eyes of untrained amateurs
devotion so deep forever stirs in your mind
when every find becomes that very first time
[hook: ammie queen]
just when i think that i have ’em all

honestly to me we only lose if we ever quit
even if we’ll only ever know just a little bit
minin’ what we find here never fails to amaze
considerin’ the scope of all the earth we haven’t razed
responsible collectors oughta take the opportunity
to dignify themselves within the paleo community
as holders of our heritage with values that’d never sway
fossils stand the test of time and politics will fade away
p-ssion burns inside us on the journeys that we brave
no desire for fame or our name in a clade
yeah, a single day could take us from a mountain to a ditch
would we stay if we found out the shale wdn’t rich? (heh) nope
still even if there was float it would mean more to me
than if you didn’t keep note
from an ambitious kid to a man with a trove
still a hunter for those treasures untold
so while i stay focused on what matters the most in my collectin’
through scoutin’ the river valleys and coasts i’ve been inspectin’
i’m aware of the challenges that science is faced with
sometimes simple as dollars or just some bones in a bas-m-nt
i ain’t missin’ the chance to go and take a stand
my mission’s greater than me, you know i’ve seen it firsthand
there’s a shimmer of light beneath the waves in these rivers
its name’s an insight, a legacy to outlive us
liftin’ layers of shale to tell the tale of history
steady freein’ each piece from the veil of mystery
yeah, we’ll always be the ones to dig deep and stand tall
cause you know we gone be chippin’ at these walls ’till it falls down
[hook: ammie queen]
just when i think that i have ’em all

so many secrets still unknown
from an ancient world that’s locked in stone
got me thinkin’ bout concretions and they’re still trapped inside ’em all
headin’ out in the field is where we go
in the days when the rivers and tides are low
yeah, we all want somethin’ beautiful
and to find the best of all
[hook: ammie queen]
just when i think that i have ’em all
there’s always something hidden behind these shale walls
these shale walls
if they should crumble if they should fall
would anyone find what’s hidden behind these shale walls
could we know what’s here at all, behind these shale walls
