Biscuits And Butter - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]

Daniel said traveling's risky[00:00:06]

But the money's awful good[00:00:10]

When I get back we can finally[00:00:12]

Get ahead sure we could[00:00:16]

He left the fifth of December[00:00:19]

Took our oldest boy Ben[00:00:22]

I packed them biscuits and butter[00:00:25]

And never saw them again[00:00:29]

How can I keep on walking[00:00:34]

God Almighty tell me this[00:00:37]

One foot in front of the other[00:00:40]

One foot in front of the next[00:00:44]

I sent my second oldest baby[00:00:51]

Out to find his next of kin[00:00:55]

They found the wagon in the springtime[00:00:58]

Up on Killbuck River edge[00:01:02]

He was quieter than his brother[00:01:04]

And his brother's closest friend[00:01:08]

I packed him biscuits and butter[00:01:11]

And never saw him again[00:01:14]

How can I keep on walking[00:01:19]

God Almighty tell me this[00:01:22]

One foot in front of the other[00:01:25]

One foot in front of the next[00:01:29]

They found the bones of our team of oxen[00:01:37]

The shirt I'd sewn with my own hands[00:01:40]

They found the basket I'd pack the biscuits[00:01:43]

But not a trace of my men[00:01:47]

I think I'll go down to the river[00:01:50]

I think I'll take up throwing stones[00:01:53]

I think I'll cry until I'm finished[00:01:56]

And I learn to sleep alone[00:02:00]

How can I keep on walking[00:02:05]

God Almighty tell me this[00:02:08]

One foot in front of the other[00:02:11]

One foot in front of the next[00:02:14]

I think I'll go down to the river[00:02:22]

I think I'll take up throwing stones[00:02:26]

I'll never make another biscuit[00:02:29]
