Smoke don't rise

Fuel don't burn

Sun don't shine no more

Late one night, sorrow come round

Scratching at my door

But I cut my hands

And break my back

Draggin' this bag of stones

Till they bury me down,

beneath the ground

With the dust and rattlin' bones

Shane Left my home and left my love

Kasey Caught on a rusty nail

Shane Devil rose up, heavy with gold

Kasey My soul's not for sale

Shane Then a holy

man in a house of God

Kasey He offered me a book of prayer

Shane And when I left

my home I left my love

Both I left my faith back there

Smoke don't rise

Fuel don't burn

Sun don't shine no more

Late one night, sorrow come round

Scratchin' at my door

But I cut my hands

And break my back

Draggin' this bag of stones

Till they bury me down,

beneath the ground

With the dust and rattlin' bones

Shane Shuttin' my

eyes and hang my head

Kasey Darkness makes no sound

Shane Climb it up, bottom there

Kasey Earth's on the way back down

Shane When a sadness

falls on the morning bird

Kasey Wonder what the day will bring

Shane But I'm shuttin'

my eyes and hang my head

Both At least that bird can sing

Smoke don't rise

Fuel don't burn

Sun don't shine no more

Late one night, sorrow come round

Scratchin' at my door

But I cut my hands

And break my back

Draggin' this bag of stones

Till they bury me down,

beneath the ground

With the dust and rattlin' bones

Till they bury me down,

beneath the ground

With the dust and rattlin' bones
