Take the gold

Take the coal/cold

Take the heat

But leave the money

And run



Take the wrong way out

And the rain is sure to come

And the levees are broke

And the high tides rolling in

Well it's sure coming down to a case of sink or swim



Chorus:

In the long black night 'till the sunrise

When it's too black and dark to see the way

In the long black night between now and the morning light

Oh lay you down 'till the breaking of the day



Oh lay you down



Don't be losing no sleep

Trying to figure it out one more time

When the black dog's? lying down it's the end of the line

Well if the tiddle? of the shock on a bloodstained downtown street

As we loaded d going down and everybody gets beat



Chorus



Down be digging them bones by the light of the qually? moon

It's a total waste of time, it's a digging a grave too soon

And away it's too late over the great divide

For the finding of peace in the lonesome valley tonight



Chorus
