Black Lung Lyrics

Black Lung

walkin` up with winkin` eyes
seen that tight-lipped grin
i could tell from a mile away
boy you weren`t my kin
you best put a bridle on bridle on that tongue
save your breath for breathin` buddy
an` run - run
who`s that feller next to me
with the big house grin
speakin` from the left hand
an` jumpin` out his skin
well, maybe he`s my old man
the one with the wooden eyes
you`d think after all this time
he`d find a better place to hide
cuttin` up with battin` eyes
i seen that paint on smile
aw girl i could see you comin`
for a country mile
you bes` put a bridle on bridle on that tongue
save your breath for breathin` girl
i`m talkin` from black lungs
