Parker Millsap Jacksons In A Hole Lyrics
Jackson's In A Hole by Parker Millsap
[Verse 1]
Jackson's down in a hole in Wyoming
He had a wife once, or at least that's what he told me
Drank his last one when he felt the walls start foldin' in
And his old car got thirty-five tears-a-mile 'til he had to fill her up again
[Verse 2]
Mary had a baby named Earnest
She carried him over by the furnace
And buried the feelings that burn us all
Earnest, he grew up just like his dad, a little wild and a little tall
[Verse 3]
Earnest, he has dreams about his father
Standin' up against a mountain full of water
Well he bares his chest and the mountains grow taller and black
And they split wide and wash old Jackson south and the burden off of Mary's back
[Refrain]
Nothin's gonna break these blues
Wakin' up to the Colorado news
Nothin's gonna break these blues
Wakin' up to the Colorado news
Jackson's down in a hole in Wyoming
He had a wife once, or at least that's what he told me
Drank his last one when he felt the walls start foldin' in
And his old car got thirty-five tears-a-mile 'til he had to fill her up again
[Verse 2]
Mary had a baby named Earnest
She carried him over by the furnace
And buried the feelings that burn us all
Earnest, he grew up just like his dad, a little wild and a little tall
[Verse 3]
Earnest, he has dreams about his father
Standin' up against a mountain full of water
Well he bares his chest and the mountains grow taller and black
And they split wide and wash old Jackson south and the burden off of Mary's back
[Refrain]
Nothin's gonna break these blues
Wakin' up to the Colorado news
Nothin's gonna break these blues
Wakin' up to the Colorado news
