lyrics

damn good ol' days

joseph marta seven kids
i know them names by heart
your mother's father worked the mines
petersburg to charleston
st petersburg to charleston

bridge
in the good ol days
the good ol days
in the good ol days
damn good ol days

ol wringer washer's on the porch
thieves done stole him blind
one empty bottle rot gut wine
cotton worked the mines
ol cotton worked the mines

bridge

fifty cents a bloody day
no child labor laws
most them lil' babies died
disease and alcohol
disease and alchol

bridge

instrumental

a picture tells a thousand lies
comp'ny kiss my ass
barefoot on the cabin floor
paint the broken glass
paint the broken glass

bridge

there's ghosts in west virginia
i can feel em in my bones
mem'ries of the hard times
in your eyes never grow old
in your eyes never grow old

bridge
bridge
