歌词
My old friend buried his mama today
Told me about how he cried bloody tears and prayed
As the preacher shouted loud to believers
The sermon pounded home to redeem us
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
When I heard the icy water waves crashing on the shore
When my little baby sister say she just can't take it no more
When the earth split open and we buried a man
A man that died a demon with a two fisted hand
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
When the tall green crops drown underneath the rain
When memories come and your knees buckle under the pain
When the take back man steals away your soul
You're longing in your pockets and you come up cold
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
When sleep won't come and eyes won't close after life
When you ache for slumber and your eyes won't shut after life
When the compass leaves still lost your way
Nothing left to lose but another day
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
When God comes to greet us I'll be waiting at the door
When he comes down to seek us I'll meet him at the door
The trial is over, going to go with the Lord
I won't have to worry about my sins no more
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
