(HARP & GUITAR INTRO) well I sure take it with me wherever I go and you might like to see it but it never does show like a wind in the valley that never does blow like the grass in the back that you never did mow it's a black sky formin' on the ridge it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge it's everything you do and nothin' that you did (HARP & GUITAR DITTY) well you might see me drivin' in the wrong side of town and you might see me shinin' when the rain's comin' down like a diamond that's hidin' in the lost and found like a coon that's runnin' from a red bone hound it's a black sky formin' on the ridge it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge it's everything you do and nothin' that you did (HARP & GUITAR DITTY) well the wood keeps burnin' in the old wood stove and the cows keep goin' where they done been drove and a light keeps glowin' in a dead man's cove and a loom keeps spinnin' where the weave gets wove it's a black sky formin' on the ridge it's a woman waitin' standin' on the bridge it's the price that you pay for walkin' on the ledge it's everything you do and nothin' that you did
