Leaving Eden - Carolina Chocolate Drops[00:00:00]

Hush now don't you wake up[00:00:15]

We'll be leaving at first light[00:00:17]

Mama's buying you a mockingbird[00:00:20]

To lull you through the night[00:00:24]

Across the Dan by morning[00:00:29]

Here's a blanket for you to share[00:00:32]

They're building down in Georgia[00:00:35]

Daddy hears he'll find work there[00:00:38]

And the mockingbird can sing[00:00:43]

Like the crying of the dove[00:00:46]

And I can't tell my daughters[00:00:50]

All the things that I am scared of[00:00:53]

But I am not afraid of[00:00:59]

That bright glory up above[00:01:02]

Dying's just another way[00:01:06]

To lead the ones you love[00:01:09]

No work for the working man[00:01:17]

Just one more empty mill[00:01:20]

Hard times in Rockingham[00:01:23]

Hard times harder still[00:01:26]

The crows are in the kitchen[00:01:31]

The wolves at the door[00:01:34]

Our father's land of Eden[00:01:37]

Is paradise no more[00:01:41]

And the mockingbird can sing[00:01:45]

Like the crying of the dove[00:01:48]

And I can't tell my daughters[00:01:52]

All the things that I am scared of[00:01:54]

But I am not afraid of[00:02:01]

That bright glory up above[00:02:04]

Dying's just another way[00:02:08]

To lead the ones you love[00:02:11]

My sister stayed in Eden[00:03:02]

Her husband's got some land[00:03:05]

An agent for the county thinks[00:03:08]

That they might make a stand[00:03:11]

A hard life full of working[00:03:16]

With nothing much to show[00:03:19]

A long life of leaving[00:03:22]

With nowhere to go[00:03:25]

And the mockingbird can sing[00:03:30]

Like the crying of the dove[00:03:33]

And I can't tell my daughters[00:03:36]

All the things[00:03:39]

That I am scared of[00:03:40]

But I am not afraid[00:03:46]

Of that bright glory up above[00:03:48]

Dying's just another way to lead the ones you love[00:03:52]
