Black Sky Lyrics

Artist: The Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Album: It's Alive

(HARP & GUITAR INTRO)

well I sure take it with me wherever I go

and you might like to see it but it never does show

like a wind in the valley that never does blow

like the grass in the back that you never did mow

it's a black sky formin' on the ridge

it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge

it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge

it's everything you do and nothin' that you did

(HARP & GUITAR DITTY)

well you might see me drivin' in the wrong side of town

and you might see me shinin' when the rain's comin' down

like a diamond that's hidin' in the lost and found

like a coon that's runnin' from a red bone hound

it's a black sky formin' on the ridge

it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge

it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge

it's everything you do and nothin' that you did

(HARP & GUITAR DITTY)

well the wood keeps burnin' in the old wood stove

and the cows keep goin' where they done been drove

and a light keeps glowin' in a dead man's cove

and a loom keeps spinnin' where the weave gets wove

it's a black sky formin' on the ridge

it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge

it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge

it's everything you do and nothin' that you did
