Steve Earle Washington Square Serenade Oxycontin Blues Well my daddy worked in the coal mine `Till the company shut it down Then he sat around and drank hisself blind `Till we put him back underground Now nothin` grows on this mountain And what`s a poor boy to do? Except to wander these hills forgotten With the oxycontin blues Well I never cared much for whiskey `Cause it only made daddy mean Wrapped a little bit tight they tell me For the methamphetamine Then my cousin come up from Knoxville And he taught me a thing or two Now I`m headed nowhere but downhill With the oxycontin blues Got a dollar bill in my pocket Got a half a tank in my truck I`m gonna go and pawn grandma`s locket Hell, maybe it`ll change my luck Ain`t nothin gonna be right no how `Cause I know I can`t ever lose This devil that`s draggin` me down And the oxycontin blues |
