Taneytown (Album Version) - Steve Earle[00:00:00]

I went down to Taneytown[00:00:32]

I went down to Taneytown[00:00:36]

To see what I could see[00:00:39]

My mama told me never go[00:00:45]

But I'm almost 22 years old[00:00:49]

Sometimes I fear this holler swollow me[00:00:52]

She ran off to Gettysburg[00:00:59]

Went off with that new beau of hers[00:01:02]

I snuck off after dark[00:01:05]

Long way down the county road[00:01:12]

Stars were bright[00:01:15]

The moon was low[00:01:17]

Down to where the black top highway starts[00:01:19]

I went down to Taneytown[00:01:25]

I went down to Taneytown[00:01:29]

I went down to see what I could see[00:01:32]

I could see everybody stared at me[00:01:51]

You'd think that they ain't never seen[00:01:55]

A colored boy before[00:01:58]

They chunked at me[00:02:05]

Called me names[00:02:06]

They'd have whipped me sure but the sheriff came[00:02:08]

I slipped off through the dry goods store[00:02:12]

I ran down division street[00:02:18]

Some of them boys followed me[00:02:21]

Down to the railroad track[00:02:24]

Four of them and I can't fight[00:02:31]

But I had my old Randall knife[00:02:34]

I cut that boy and I never did look back[00:02:38]

I went down to Taneytown[00:02:44]

I went down to Taneytown[00:02:47]

I went down to see what I could see[00:02:51]

Cross the fields and woods I run[00:03:49]

Like a bullet from a rabbit gun[00:03:52]

Back home to my bed[00:03:56]

Ma came in from Gettysburg[00:04:03]

Her and that new beau of hers[00:04:06]

Boy you look like hell was all she said[00:04:09]

Month went by without a word[00:04:16]

Somebody down the holler heard[00:04:19]

About that boy they hung[00:04:23]

He begged those men to spare his life[00:04:29]

But I dropped my bloody Randall knife[00:04:32]

He picked it up so they thought he was the one[00:04:36]

I went down to Taneytown[00:04:43]

I went down to Taneytown[00:04:45]

I ain't going back there anymore[00:04:49]
