Price Of Progress - Jason Ringenberg[00:00:00]
One two[00:00:00]
One two three four[00:00:02]
Some people have the nerve[00:00:19]
To say you get what you deserve[00:00:22]
I'm the forth generation[00:00:26]
Now to put my back to this mule and plow[00:00:29]
We have always found a way[00:00:34]
To stand tall or kneel and pray[00:00:37]
In the spring of 38 a man came from the TVA[00:00:49]
You said you have to leave from here[00:00:56]
We're gonna build a dam next year[00:01:00]
Your old farm and valley too[00:01:04]
Will be a lake so deep and blue[00:01:07]
The dam was finished up last week[00:01:26]
The water makes it silent creep[00:01:30]
Yesterday my grand dads grave[00:01:34]
Was covered up like pharos slave[00:01:37]
The porch steps by evening's end[00:01:41]
Forever we'll be flooded in[00:01:45]
They think that I'm a crazy fool[00:02:30]
To sit and wait so calm and cool[00:02:33]
And watch the water slowly rise[00:02:37]
Through these tired and world worn eyes[00:02:41]
But they don't know that late tonight[00:02:44]
I'm gonna plug that dam with dynamite[00:02:55]
