lyrics
Down in the holler where the willows writhe
Under the soil where their roots they thrive
I watched this girl wither and die
Cold from the bitter tears she cried
CHORUS:
And I went down, down, down to the ground
And I went down, down, searching, but never found
Out in the West where the sun falls down
Under the water scaly fishes all around
I dove into the water deep
Knowing no loving promise I could keep
CHORUS
All in the middle of a great big field
Struck by the endless horizons I feel
I got lost I that great void
That girl was gone and I had debts to pay
CHORUS
Up here in heaven I stretch my wings
No worries about these earthly things
Love sorrow Girls and Rings
Laid dead in my tracks by the songs she sings
CHORUS
