La Grande - Laura Gibson[00:00:00]
When the moon carves a trail[00:00:09]
Down the pine bearded hills[00:00:12]
And a ghost wind hollers to the early morn[00:00:14]
And the starlings return to[00:00:19]
The old sugar mill[00:00:21]
Stealing their corn from the grower's field[00:00:24]
Oh I'll be no more[00:00:29]
When we've covered our hands[00:00:38]
In the bone white clay[00:00:40]
And we've shaken the dust[00:00:43]
From every boot and spur[00:00:45]
We have counted our days[00:00:48]
In planks and rails[00:00:50]
We have kept our spirits[00:00:52]
In the dancing halls[00:00:55]
Oh I'll be no more[00:00:57]
When a cold corner stage in[00:01:17]
The back of the room[00:01:19]
Holds a house band carrying an orphan tune[00:01:22]
I would swing I would sway [00:01:26]
I would pull my hips[00:01:29]
To the sad chorus playing on the overheads[00:01:31]
Oh I'll be no more[00:01:36]
Oh I'll be no more[00:01:46]
Still to this day[00:01:56]
I can hear the whistle blow[00:01:58]
I can smell the sage burn[00:02:01]
I may be as old and stubborn as a pine[00:02:04]
But I am just as wild as the young[00:02:09]
When a ribbon is curved round[00:02:45]
The blue shadowed hills[00:02:48]
And the hot steel is humming[00:02:50]
Down the Union Line[00:02:53]
Whip thin hickory black tap tapping[00:02:55]
Our sad faced chatter into rhythm and rhyme[00:03:00]
Oh I'll be no more[00:03:05]
Oh I'll be no more[00:03:14]
