Stoney End

I was born from love

And my poor mother worked the mines

I was raised on the Good Book Jesus

Till I read between the lines

Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, mama, cradle me again

(Cradle me, mama, cradle me again)

I can still remember him

With love light in his eyes

But the light flickered out and parted

As the sun began to rise

Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, mama, cradle me again

(Cradle me, mama, cradle me again)

Never mind the forecast

'Cause the sky has lost control

'Cause the fury and the broken thunders

Come to match my ragin' soul

Now I don't believe I want to see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, mama, cradle me

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, mama, cradle me again

(Cradle me)

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, mama, cradle me again

(Cradle me)

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end
