Lyrics:
on and on and on
Now that you're gone
Down in deep water
Windham County's daughter
Never get to look in your eyes
It just happened
Like thunder clapping
Leaving
silly old snowman, oh, how he makes me smile
Let's sit by the fire, watch the babies get tired
Closing their eyes 'cause Santa's on his way
Ooh, ooh
mine
Tryin' to pull down that old water tank
Sits out by the county line
And people wonder why it leans the way it does
Well that was us
Seems
remembered
So many times that my memories are worn
And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
our home was blessed
When daddy'd say mama sing a song
Sister left home first I guess then Bob and Tommy and Dan
By then dad's hair was turning grey
With I love ginny painted in bright green
Hey that's my uncle bill there by the courthouse
He'll be lowering the flag when the sun goes down
And this
On a trading path, through the Carolinas
Used by Indians who braved the wind and rain
They settled down beside the raging waters
And they worked
feel just fine
The whiskey's done been watered down and the smoke quit gettin' me high
But a honky tonk special is enough to get me by
I shook his hand
me in Allegheny County, it's the
The most hated, so faded that I'm bow-legged
Don't bathe, gross gang, smell like old Lo Mein, shit
The flow
a-find a side county, choose to life out it
Niggas still a-bring that Bob Barker at the price rack
I know some youngins that first hustle was cha-cha
about a dime a dozen
Ash and exhale, days keep on coming
Collapsing supernova
I got work by Bova
Up in the shadowbox
Framed like it was priceless
Bob
Hercules!
Break it down!
Break it down!
Break it down!
Yo Bob, show that old school sucker punk what real hip hop is boy
"How Ya Like Me Now?" I'm
roll down Florence?"
I forgot, I had two warrants (Damn!)
Yeah, but like a fool I kept drivin
Until I ran a red light, and heard a motherfuckin' siren
again
I'm gonna slap you up in the county jail
We said thank you sir you sure been nice
And you ain't gonna have to tell us twice
And we southbound down
Chased by girls so pretty
Feeling dandy and all witty
Aching like a grape in the sunshine
I took a pill here, a pill there
I headed West somewhere
With I love ginny painted in bright green
Hey that's my uncle bill there by the courthouse
He'll be lowering the flag when the sun goes down
And this
So many times that my memories are worn.
[Chorus]
And, "Daddy, won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County?
Down by the Green River where Paradise
Man you hell of a pussy for
The shit you did last night
I could tell you nervous right now by
How you moving your hands right
Yeah please don't fuck
When I was a growing boy
A-rocking on my daddy's knee
Daddy took an old guitar and sang
Bury me on the lone prairie
Uncle Bob sat at the piano
I went down highway 17 then took a left on county road cc
To see if I still had my mind of if they gave a shit after the last time
I looked into
you really need 'em?
When I was locked up in the county, I ain't even see 'em
I'm by my lonely, lonely
What happen to the bitches and the party?
remembered
So many times that my memories are worn
And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
down boy, hit this BM, Bob Marley
A tribute
'Cause it's probably as fat as it was he rolled
When he strolled
Down the same cobble stone streets
attacked Pearl Harbor) a date which will live in infamy."
