Stoney End

I was born from love, and my poor mother worked the mines

I was raised on the Good Book of Jesus

'Til I read between the lines

Now I don't believe I want to see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again

And I can still remember him with love light in his eyes

But the light flickered out and parted

As the sun began to rise

Now I don't believe I want to see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again

Never mind the forecast 'cause the sky has lost control

'Cause the fury and the broken thunders

Come to match my ragin' soul

And now I don't believe I want to see the morning

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go down the stoney end

Mama, let me start all over

Cradle me, Mama, cradle me again

Going down the stoney end

I never wanted to go

I never wanted to go

Mama, I never wanted to go
