Maria McKee) Intro:           [Chorus:] Bury me along the Big Sandy Down in those blue gray mountains. Rest my soul in those hills of coal Until this old earth does tremble. Don’t you mourn for me when my soul is free No woman don’t you cry. You just bury me along the Big Sandy Under a blue Kentucky sky. [Verse:] This old town of sin its about to do me in I don’t know how much I can stand. With my knees on the street and my heart at their feet I’m forced to beg from Satan’s hand. [Chorus] INSTRUMENTAL                                    [Verse:] When I came to this land I was strong and I could stand Oh but now I’ve somehow gone astray. Yet I still see the truth in the teaching of my youth And I know that the Lord ain’t turned away. [Chorus:] [Outro:] Under a blue Kentucky sky. Under a blue Kentucky sky. Track 6 - Guitars Cadillacs Girl you taught me how to hurt real bad And cry myself to sleep And showed me how this town can shatter dreams Another lesson ’bout a naive fool Who came to Babylon And found out that the pie Don’t taste so sweet CHORUS Now it’s guitars cadillacs hillbilly music Lonely lonely streets that I call home Yea my guitars cadillacs hillbilly music The only things that keep me hangin’ on (Instrumental) Ain’t no glamour in this tinsle land Of lost and wasted lives Painful scars are all that’s left of me I wanna thank-you girl for teachin’ me Brand new ways to be cruel Like findin’ mine now I guess I’ll just leave (Chorus) (Instrumental) (Chorus) Track 9 - Miner’s Prayer  When the whistle blows each morning and I walk down in that cold dark mine.  I say a prayer for my dear savior please let me see the sunshine one more time.   CHORUS   When oh when will it be over when will I lay these burdens down and when I die dear Lord in heaven please take my sole from beneath that cold dark ground.

Du même artiste :

Cette chanson aborde les thèmes de la douleur liée à l'amour perdu et de la réalité souvent difficile de la vie. L'artiste évoque comment une relation tumultueuse l'a conduit à une profonde tristesse et à des rêves brisés. À travers des images puissantes, il exprime sa solitude et son attachement à la musique country, qui lui apporte réconfort et dont les mélodies résonnent avec ses pertes. Le contexte de la chanson se situe dans un environnement marqué par l’isolement et les désillusions, où les références aux voitures, à la musique et aux rues désertes illustrent une vie qui ne répond pas aux attentes. C'est une sorte de chronique urbaine, un reflet des luttes personnelles au milieu des plaisirs passagers souvent associés à ce style de vie.
