hickory, walnut, & pine - the po' rambling boys lyrics
heard saws on the mountain, saw the trucks rumble by
filing past like a funeral line
those big iron trailers were piled up high
with hickory, walnut and pine
call it progress or a shame, well you can’t stop a train
as it’s barrelin’ on down the line
they’ll cut down the trees and they’ll name your new streets
hickory, walnut and pine
the mountain top’s flattened, the hickory’s gone
the streams run black as a cuss
my father’s been out in the barn more and more
since the mining went bad and then worse
i heard his old saw, i heard his old plane
i heard his cough worsen with time
now i stand where he lays in a box that he made
out of hickory, walnut and pine
[instrumental]
my children have left for the big city jobs
i’ll remain my fate to unwind
and i’ll dream of the day when the wind called my name
through hickory, walnut and pine
call it progress or a shame, well you can’t stop a train
as it’s barrelin’ on down the line
they’ll cut down the trees and they’ll name your new streets
hickory, walnut and pine
call it progress or a shame, well you can’t stop a train
and you can’t stop the passing of time
they’ll cut down the trees and name your new streets
hickory, walnut and pine
hickory, walnut and pine
hickory, walnut and pine
