Smoke don’t rise   Fuel don’t burn   Sun don’t shine no more   Late one night, sorrow come round   Scratching at my door   But I cut my hands   And break my back   Draggin’ this bag of stones   Till they bury me down, beneath the ground   With the dust and rattlin’ bones      [Shane] Left my home and left my love   [Kasey] Caught on a rusty nail   [Shane] Devil rose up, heavy with gold   [Kasey] My soul’s not for sale   [Shane] Then a holy man in a house of God   [Kasey] He offered me a book of prayer   [Shane] And when I left my home I left my love   [Both] I left my faith back there      Smoke don’t rise   Fuel don’t burn   Sun don’t shine no more   Late one night, sorrow come round   Scratchin’ at my door   But I cut my hands   And break my back   Draggin’ this bag of stones   Till they bury me down, beneath the ground   With the dust and rattlin’ bones      [Shane] Shuttin’ my eyes and hang my head   [Kasey] Darkness makes no sound   [Shane] Climb it up, bottom there   [Kasey] Earth’s on the way back down   [Shane] When a sadness falls on the morning bird   [Kasey] Wonder what the day will bring   [Shane] But I’m shuttin’ my eyes and hang my head   [Both] At least that bird can sing      Smoke don’t rise   Fuel don’t burn   Sun don’t shine no more   Late one night, sorrow come round   Scratchin’ at my door   But I cut my hands   And break my back   Draggin’ this bag of stones   Till they bury me down, beneath the ground   With the dust and rattlin’ bones      Till they bury me down, beneath the ground   With the dust and rattlin’ bones
