1. Black River’s Chest [The Burden Revisited]

lyrics

I hung my head and cried away
with a burden that Ι can’t bear
Save me, I stumbled and fell today
Got a heart that I won't share

And where do all these highways go
Can you venture a guess?
In this evil minstrel show
(I’ve been) lifted at Black River’s chest

I’ll build a road, a stairway
to escape the chain gang
But no breeze’s gonna take away
The things that are left undone...left undone

I looked through my window pane
At the end of the ledge
So throw my ashes straight to hell
If you can hear my pledge

I went down to praying grounds
I´ve been crawlin' on the rye
I don’t need to be forgiven
And I can’t sell no alibi

Like a smokestack silver linin’
Hidden in the dark clouds
When the strike comes a-shinin’ down
Off the skies, on the top of mound…on the top of mound

I’ll build a road, a stairway
To escape the chain gang
Black River will take away
The things that are left undone...left undone

" It is an esoteric elegy of sentiments that draws us "down" with them, and signifies that the only catharsis, the one way road for Dustbowl comes from the earth…”
