"Mississippi John Hurt" lyrics
"Mississippi John Hurt"
(feat. Pam Tillis)
Mississippi John Hurt has laid his burden down
Mississippi John Hurt done laid his burden down
His living soul's with a loving God, his bones' in the cold cold ground
Mississippi John Hurt heals me when he sings
Thump that Stella guitar like a wild bird flap her wings
Mississippi John Hurt sing about the candy man
His voice is sweet like bacon sizzling in a frying pan
Mississippi John Hurt's voice smooth as spinach
Moss was a hardworking man washed in the blood of the cross

Justin Townes Earle - "The Saint Of Lost Causes" I'm a bad dream
I'm not a nightmare, I'm too pretty for that
Let's just say I'm the last thing you wanna see coming
I'm the reason they say watch your back
For so long, I was like a wounded hound...
James McMurtry - "What's The Matter" The phone's on the dash, the goddamned thing
It's one of those times when I know it's gonna ring
Don't want to answer, but I got no choice
There's something bad wrong I can hear it in your voice...
John Prine - "Sweet Revenge" I got kicked off Noah's Ark
I turn my cheek to unkind remarks
There was two of everything
But one of me
And when the rains came tumbling down
I held my breath and I stood my ground
And I watched that...
Rodney Crowell - "Flatland Hillbillies" We're flatland hillbillies, Irish Cajun Creole mix
My brothers on an off shore rig, my sister's on the pole at slicks
Mama takes in peoples washing, she was widowed by a pipeline man
We're flatland...
John Hiatt - "Cry To Me" Getting dark and it feels like trouble
Heating up just like the fallin' evening rain
Tongues so sharp they could burst any bubble
Nobody wants to talk about all that pain
They're all having fun...
