about

Pure defiant new acoustic blues because 2020 needed a kick.

lyrics

Put another nail in
I will not let it kill me
put another nail
in my heart
I will rise
with all the fight that's in me
and never will I rest
in your grave.
Coal-black dust
blood, bone, and rust.
Never will I rest
in your grave
In silence we trust
history has crushed
poor damned souls never saved.
Put another nail
put another nail in
put another nail
in my heart
I will not let it kill me
and will rise
with all my fight
Never will I rest
in your grave.
My daddy was a fighter
who gave more than he got
I saw that fight within him
burning as he fought
and I'm standing here before you
with the spirit now to say
Can't take a soul
you could not take his soul
you will not take my soul
away
but you can put another nail
put another nail in
put another nail in my heart
I will not let it kill me
and will rise with all my fight
for never will I rest
in your grave
in your grave.
