Kentucky Lyrics

[Intro]
Listen, won't you listen, to the feet go marching
Marching to their graves?
Follow if you dare, but just beware that
They're forever chained

[Verse 1]
Everyone has lost their eyes
Those mouths that run have all run dry
Mass production takes control
Another way to strip the soul
Yeah I know, but save my spot in line

[Chorus]
When I was young
Oh, my daddy said to me
(Said to me)
Take all you can from the world
'Cause nothin' is for free
Beware the curse of golden bars and diamond rings
(And diamond rings)
'Cause when you die of course
You cannot take a thing

[Verse 2]
The shit you're sure will blow my mind
Don't mean a thing to me
'Cause I will cut you to your core
I'll see that you're diseased
A self-absorbed infection
I'm afraid there is no cure
I'll hold you down and cut it out
You won't hurt no more

[Chorus]
When I was young
Oh, my daddy said to me
(Said to me)
Take all you can from the world
'Cause nothin' is for free Beware the curse of golden bars and diamond rings
(And diamond rings)
'Cause when you die, of course
You cannot take a thing

[Bridge]
Listen, won't you listen, to the feet go marching
Marching to their graves?
Tighten, won't you tighten, them golden shackles
You're forever chained

Listen, won't you listen, to the feet go marching
Marching to their graves?
Tighten, won't you tighten, them golden shackles
You're forever chained

Listen, won't you listen, to the feet go marching
Marching to their graves?
Tighten, won't you tighten, them golden shackles
You're forever chained

[Chorus]
When I was young
Oh, my daddy said to me
(Said to me)
Take all you can from the world
'Cause nothin' is for free
Beware the curse of golden bars and diamond rings
(And diamond rings)
'Cause when you die of course you
You cannot take a goddamn thing

[Outro]
(nah nah nah no)
You can't take a thing
