Turnpike Troubadours - Black Sky Lyrics



Turnpike Troubadours - Black Sky Lyrics
Official




Well, I sure take it with me wherever I go
And you might like to see it but it never does show
Like the wind in the valley that never does blow
Like a grass in the back that you never did mow

It's a black sky forming on the ridge
It's a woman waiting standing on the bridge
It's a price that you pay for walking on the ledge
It's everything you do and nothing that you did

Well, you might see me driving on the wrong side of town
And you might see me shining when the rains come down
Like a diamond that's hiding in the lost and found
Like a coon that's running from a red bone hound

It's a black sky forming on the ridge
It's a woman waiting standing on the bridge
It's the price that you pay for walking on the ledge
It's everything you do and nothing that you did

Well, the wood keeps burning in the old wood stove
And the cows keep going where they done been drove
And the light keeps glowing in Dead Man's Cove
And the loom keeps spinning where the weave gets wove

It's a black sky forming on the ridge
It's a woman waiting standing on the bridge
It's the price that you pay for walking on the ledge
It's everything you do and nothing that you did
