Well I live in the canyon[00:00:07]
Where the old coyotes howl[00:00:10]
And they come down from the mountains when the dogs begin to growl[00:00:13]
And they meet up in the darkness where they fight until the death[00:00:19]
When the morning sun is rising I will bury who they left[00:00:25]
And oh[00:00:34]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:00:37]
And I stay in the cabin[00:00:47]
Where I work my hands to bleed[00:00:49]
Swing the hammer to the nail[00:00:52]
And I swing the axe onto the tree[00:00:55]
And I once cleared these woods[00:00:59]
Yeah there used to be a path[00:01:02]
And now the trees have overgrown just to prove that nothing lasts[00:01:05]
And oh[00:01:14]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:01:17]
The old man went crazy[00:01:26]
He lives high up on the ridge[00:01:29]
He used to tell me all the stories of the church house and the bridge[00:01:32]
But the bridge[00:01:39]
She washed away your sin[00:01:40]
The church house it got burned[00:01:42]
'Cause this world has gone angry and some people never learn[00:01:45]
And oh[00:01:54]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:01:57]
And I once loved a woman[00:02:07]
Yes and Georgia was her name[00:02:10]
We met out in the foothills of the Ozark Mountain Range[00:02:13]
We saw the world together[00:02:19]
Least the parts that we love most[00:02:22]
She still comes to me in dreams[00:02:25]
I am still haunted with her ghost[00:02:28]
And oh[00:02:34]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:02:37]
And all my thoughts are heavy[00:02:53]
My beard[00:02:56]
It has grown long[00:02:57]
And I search the face of six strings for an old familiar song[00:02:59]
But the chords[00:03:05]
They all sound foreign like the places that I've been[00:03:06]
So I close my eyes to sleep[00:03:11]
Tomorrow I will try again[00:03:14]
And oh[00:03:21]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:03:24]
Oh[00:03:29]
Oh[00:03:30]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:03:30]
Singing oh[00:03:33]
Oh[00:03:35]
They call me Canyon Joe[00:03:37]
