"Stoney End" lyrics
"Stoney End"
I was born from love
And my poor mother worked the mines
I was raised on the Good Book, Jesus
'Til I read between the lines
Now, I don't believe I wanna see the morning
Going down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
Mama, let me start all over (Mama, let me start all over)
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
(Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again)
And I can still remember him
With love light in his eyes
But the light flickered out and parted
As the sun began to rise
Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning
Going down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
Mama, let me start all over (Mama, let me start all over)
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
(Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again)
(Mama, cradle me again)
Never mind the forecast
'Cause the sky has lost control
'Cause the fury and the broken thunders
Come to match my raging soul
Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning
Going down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
Mama, let me start all over (Mama, let me start all over)
Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go, I never wanted to go (Never wanted to go)
Going down the stoney end (Mama)
I never wanted to go, I never wanted to go
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go, I never wanted to go

One shadow of the man I used to be
