Rodney Crowell
Stoney End
[Verse 1]
I was born from love
And my poor mama worked the mines
I was raised on the good book Jesus
'Til I read between the lines
Now I don't believe I wanna see the morning

[Chorus]
Going down the stoney end
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
Mama, let me start all over
Cradle me
Mama, cradle me again

[Verse 2]
I can still remember him
With love light in his eyes
But the light flickered out and parted
As the sun bеgan to rise
Now I don't believе I wanna see the morning

[Chorus]
Going down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
Mama, let me start all over
Cradle me
Mama, cradle me again
[Verse 3]
Never mind the forecast
'Cause the sky has lost control
'Cause the fury and the broken thunder's
Come to match my raging soul
And I don't believe I wanna see the morning

[Chorus]
Going down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
I never wanted to go down the stoney end
(Going down the stoney end)
Mama, let me start all over
Cradle me
Mama, cradle me again
(Cradle me)
(Mama, cradle me again)
Cradle me
Mama, cradle me again

[Outro]
Ooh, ah
I can still remember him
With the love light in his eyes
Going down the stoney end
Going down the stoney end
