lyrics

VERSE
Deep now within
This dusty old town well he does hide
Stuck in a room lord
Stuck in a room of lies
In shadows she lingers
In the distance a whistle cries
He knows its that old South freight
well lord he hides his eyes
CHORUS
The still waters from which
He knows he will rise
Ih lord now he will learn to get by
Hardships will come
and then slowly pass him by
Still Waters will bring
a new light
VERSE
In his room he lay thinking now
Should leave it all behind
Hit that road Southward
Let it smolder far from sight
For deep within his mind now
He knows she's got a wandering eye
Keeps her left hand hidden
In the darkness of night
CHORUS
The still waters from which
He knows he will rise
Ih lord now he will learn to get by
Hardships will come
and then slowly pass him by
Still Waters will bring
a new light
VERSE/ ENDING
His last thought as he's walking Southward
Leaving her far behind
Hell Im free man tonight, Oh lord I see the light
As still waters come into sight

Offering a look into the heart felt recordings of old, and the life that seems to spring forth from his songs and stories. Often conjuring an image of a ragged man carrying a tattered guitar case, bottle O'Whiskey in hand, along an old dusty road. ... more
