Daddy worked like a mule mining Pike County coal

He fucked up his back, he couldn' t work anymore

He said one of these days you' ll get out of these hills

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
Dm F C Dm
See the ways of this world will just bring you to tears
Dm F C Dm
Keep the Lord in your heart, you' ll have nothing to fear
F C G Dm
Live the best that you can and don' t lie and don' t steal

Well daddy I' ve been trying, I just can' t catch a break

There' s too much in this world that I can' t seem to shake
F C G Dm
But I remember your words Lord, they bring me to chills

It takes twice as long to build bridges you burn

And there is hurt you can cause time alone cannot heal

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills
