Tina Nolan had a man with a good place for siftin' He invited me diggin', so I picked up my screen And a shovel to dig and a jar of shine Traded me fair for a bottle of wine His brother's Barnes Mountain wine We trudged through the snow straight up the hillside Took a ridge for a while, then we slowly went down To an overhang hid from the ridgeline We bent o'er our handles and we bit in the ground The dark and bloody ground Was a bitch to break ground but the wine kept us goin' Moonshine was flowin' and keepin' us warm 'Cause you can't hold a girl with a fistful of shovel Got to find your fire in the company of corn We dug for a while then it all turned to ashes Found a bunch of broke flint and a few bits of bone Then I heard Jesse yell o'er the pile he was sifting Shook the hills like the angels were callin' us home Jesse, Zachary come home It was banded as hell, it was fluted and Clovis It was hot as the pistol I kept on my side And I was fiending so fierce, I was broke ass and busted I pulled out my pistol and I took Jesse's life Clovis like that is a hard point to find Makes pills swift to come by with a good chunk of change Left over for burn on whatever meanness Whatever woman is comin' my way Darlin' come my way I sit in this cell for the banded Clovis I stole off of Nolan when I killed'm that day I reckon the chase of the pills and the powder Corn liquor and woman are the culprits to blame
I’m a professional black DJ (C Style) that have played in plenty of honky-tonk dive bars which grew my career throughout my 24 years of performing and this is my theme song that I want my ashes spread out to after I’m deceased ☠️ and cremated…. Thanks Cody Jinks for sharing your talent!! Much appreciated!!
All I think about is my dad in this song he was a true cowboy he rode bulls broke horses and raised them both had a farm and all but lost it all over drugs the year I was born so believe me or not but I get comfort in this song and think about my dad everytime I hear it
I moved out to the county a few years ago from the rush of city living was told Bobby good luck son but remember city Boys don't go county well 30 years later I'm doing just fine as this song seems to nail what I been doing these days..😊
My uncle loves this song and so do I my whole family pretty much loves this song every time I hear it it reminds me of them and it makes me think about all the good times we have together ik it sounds dumb but this song really means a lot to me man I don’t ever wanna grow up I wish I could stay 14 for ever because when I grow up I won’t have all my family and I don’t know what I’m gonna do without them
Found this and Matt mason at the same time and RU-vid made a mix with mostly y'alls music. Matt is amazing check him out for sure his chasing stardust, E, where I've been, ect are excellent, but this is my favorite song currently.
