Big Wooden Radio - Waterbound lyrics
I'm waterbound and I can't get around. I'm waterbound and I can't get over. Waterbound and I can't get home way down to North Carolina. It's just a grit tipple town at the foot of these hills where I live with my kids and my unpaid bills. There's another side of life that I never see, and a coal black river running right between. I woke to my life at an early age stringing bobs at the mill for a piece-work wage. Now it's ten years down and I'm still stringing leads, got a trailer up the holler and six mouths to feed. Chorus Dust in the air, lint on my shoes I sing an unbroken line called the Mill City Blues, where you warp and you weave, then you reline and spin and you keep on turning till your lungs fill in. It's a company town built on company land. There ain't a rug in this county on which I'd stand. They own me from my birth to my dyin' day but what I touch in the middle will be Union Made. Chorus |
