What Are The Lyrics For Taneytown By Steve Earle?
I went down to Taneytown
I went down to Taneytown To see what I could see My mama told me never go I'm damn near twenty two years old Sometimes I fear this holler swallow me She ran off to Gettysburg Went off with that new beau of hers I snuck off after dark It's a long way down the county road The stars were bright and the moon was low Down to where the black top highway starts I went down to Taneytown I went down to Taneytown I went down to see what I could see Now everybody stared at me You'd think that they ain't never seen A colored boy before Well they chunked at me and called me names They'd have whopped me sure but the sheriff came I slipped off ran through the dry goods store I ran down Division Street Some of them boys followed me Down to the railroad track There's four of them and I can't fight But I had my old Randall knife I cut that boy and I never did look back I went down to Taneytown I went down to Taneytown I went down to see what I could see Cross the fields and woods I run Like a bullet from a rabbit gun Back home to my bed Now Ma came in from Gettysburg Her and that new beau of hers "Boy you look like hell"; alls she said A month went by without a word Somebody down the holler heard About that boy they hung He begged those men to spare his life But I dropped my bloody Randall knife He picked it up so they thought he was the one, yeah I went down to Taneytown I went down to Taneytown I ain't goin' back there anymore |
