Smoke dont rise Fuel dont burn Sun dont shine no more Late one night, sorrow come round Scratching at my door But I cut my hands And break my back Draggin this bag of stones Till they bury me down, beneath the ground With the dust and rattlin bones Left my home and left my love Caught on a rusty nail Devil rose up, heavy with gold My souls not for sale Then a holy man in a house of God He offered me a book of prayer And when I left my home I left my love I left my faith back there Smoke dont rise Fuel dont burn Sun dont shine no more Late one night, sorrow come round Scratchin at my door But I cut my hands And break my back Draggin this bag of stones Till they bury me down, beneath the ground With the dust and rattlin bones Shuttin my eyes and hang my head Darkness makes no sound Climb it up, bottom there Earths on the way back down When a sadness falls on the morning bird Wonder what the day will bring But Im shuttin my eyes and hang my head At least that bird can sing Smoke dont rise Fuel dont burn Sun dont shine no more Late one night, sorrow come round Scratchin at my door But I cut my hands And break my back Draggin this bag of stones Till they bury me down, beneath the ground With the dust and rattlin bones Till they bury me down, beneath the ground With the dust and rattlin bones
