Lydia (Live) - Slaid Cleaves[00:00:00]

Lydie lit a cigarette today[00:00:09]

Ancient fumbling fingers in her way[00:00:15]

From a forty year old coffee cup she sipped a bit of gin[00:00:21]

Closed her eyes and let the memories in[00:00:28]

She lives in the old place all alone[00:00:33]

Keeps in touch with neighbours by the phone[00:00:39]

Grows herbs on the graves of her firstborn and his father[00:00:45]

And the coal trucks never bother her[00:00:52]

Oh Lydie let him go the boy is gone[00:00:58]

Her mother struggled as she tore him from her arms[00:01:04]

Oh Lydie your tears are heaven's rain[00:01:10]

But she never was the same[00:01:17]

A cotton dress and satin shoes[00:01:23]

Indian summer sun dressed in amber hues[00:01:30]

Spending time with a coal miner's son[00:01:36]

To an old time fiddle tune[00:01:43]

The months went by just like a breeze that year[00:01:49]

They wed in June and by the fall the boy was here[00:01:55]

Word come down from big stone there's a fire in the mine[00:02:00]

And eleven men they couldn't find[00:02:08]

Oh lydie let him go the boy is gone[00:02:13]

Her mother struggled as she tore him from her arms[00:02:20]

Oh Lydie your tears are heaven's rain[00:02:26]

But she never was the same[00:02:33]

She watched them pull him from the hole[00:03:06]

The overalls he wore were blackened by the smoke[00:03:12]

Lydie twice had this dream and twice it had come true[00:03:17]

And when she saw his father's boots she knew[00:03:25]

Oh Lydie let him go the boy is gone[00:03:31]

Her mother struggled as she tore him from her arms[00:03:37]

Oh Lydie your tears are heaven's rain[00:03:43]

But she never was the same[00:03:51]

Lydie lit a cigarette today[00:04:00]

Ancient fumbling fingers in her way[00:04:06]

From a forty year old coffee cup she sipped a bit of gin[00:04:12]

Closed her eyes and let the memories in[00:04:20]
