Stoney LaRue - Sharecropper lyrics

Who will you turn to when the fire goes out What you gonna do when your time heads south Ain’t no silver up in them clouds Who will you turn to when the fire goes out When you’re gasping for your last breath Something to save to you but there’s nothing left You’ve shot your limit, not a prayer in sight Something to save you a little luck just might Sharecropping in a field of the weary Empty handed in the pouring rain Ain’t nothing gonna come up roses When you’re looking for the burning truth to wash away Hope is in motion, numbers in red Dark is the ocean, dark is your bed Sleep on tight, you’re gonna wake up soon Dead of the night is gonna call on you Sharecropping in a field of the weary Empty handed in the pouring rain Ain’t nothing gonna come up roses When you’re looking for the burning truth to wash away Sharecropping in a field of the weary Empty handed in the pouring rain Ain’t nothing gonna come up roses When you’re looking for the burning truth to wash away
