Oro Y Cristal
Take the ribbons from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against you skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay here by my side
Tell the Earth upon you lied
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't know what's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a drink
Yesterday's dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
Yes, it saddenss me long
Help me make it through the night
Yes, it saddenss me long....
Help me
Kentucky Mine
His eyes are greener than the meadows
His hair is greyer than a ghost
His lungs are blacker than the shadows
That dance in circles down below
You see them every Monday morning
Electric halos light their way
Five days of widows mourning
But Friday rolls the stone away
Chorus
Kentucky mine, doing time
Never see the light of day
Kentucky mine, stand in line
Just to dig your own grave
From coal dust they make a living
To coal dust they will return
The earth is good but unforgiving
And someone's got to keep the fire burnin'
Daddy says, “Listen to me,
Do not follow where my footsteps lead�
Chorus
And everything he said was true
But what's a Kentucky boy like me to do?
Chorus
