"Muhlenberg County Line" lyrics

"Muhlenberg County Line"

When you wake up in the dawn
And your face touches the sun
Boy your home was here all along
The miners carry on
How it all went wrong
And they're still yearning
For a diamond or a song

The Muhlenberg County line
Means I'm home right on time
With the face of all I writhe
Chasing close behind
The Muhlenberg County line

Last cut of hay
Mean bucks and does will play
And soon the rifles will
Cheer for opening day
We got no mountains here
The hills were stripped and cleared
And all the pickups have
Mud covered mirrors

The Muhlenberg County line
Means I'm home right on time
With the face of all I writhe
Chasing close behind
The Muhlenberg County line

When the sun sets tonight
Hope you and yours are right
And no one's calling dispatch for a fight
The wind blows through the pines
And carries a whiff of shine
Down Green River and into paradise

The Muhlenberg County line
Means I'm home right on time
With the face of all I writhe
Chasing close behind
The Muhlenberg County line

Means I'll sleep for the night
And if nothing else is right
Lord I live in paradise
In the Muhlenberg County line
