Old Crow Medicine Show - Allegheny Lullaby Lyrics

Lyrics Allegheny Lullaby - Old Crow Medicine Show



Slack your rope, coil it around
This here town's just like a hanging ground
It's factory, gas station, or join
It's a chain link prison with a tangling wire
And you gonna get cut 'cause you can't climb any higher
Factory, gas station, or join
Oh, but I got dreams of a different plan
Crossing the river to the promised land
I wanna go down in flames with my sweet Janie
Try to get the hell out of Allegheny
With a hand on the bottle and one on the wheel
Won't be a slave to the iron and steel
Damned whichever way I'm going, my fate on the flip of a coin
It's factory, gas station, or join
Whole county wide is a cut speed trap
It's a half inch of water and a Quikrete sack
Factory, gas station, or join
Got your back in the corner, feel the urge to kill
When the light in the tunnel looks like a little white pill
Factory, gas station, or join
Oh, but I got dreams of a different plan
Crossing the river to the promised land
I wanna go down in flames with my sweet Janie
Try get the hell out of Allegheny
With a hand on the bottle and one on the wheel
Won't be slave to the iron and steel
Damned whichever way I'm going, my fate on the flip of a coin
It's factory, gas station, or join
La la la, la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la li
La la la, la la la
La la la la la la
Hush little baby, don't you cry
So pick your uniform, but choose it well
Prepare thyself, your soul to sell
Factory, gas station, or join
Oh, but I got dreams of a different plan
I'm going down the river gonna wash my hands
Me and Janie gonna come out clean not smelling like smoke and gasoline
With a hand on the bottle and one on the wheel
Won't be a slave to the iron and steel
These choices are no choice at all, just the flipping of a coin
It's factory, gas station, or join
Oh, but I won't choose no factory
I won't work no station, and I sure as hell won't join
