16 CARRIAGES Lyrics

Sixteen carriages drivin’ away
While I watch them ride with my dreams away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long back road all the tears I fight
Sixteen carriages drivin’ away
While I watch them ride with my dreams away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long black road all the tears I fight

At fifteen the innocence was gone astray
Had to leave my home at an early age
I saw Mama prayin’ I saw Daddy grind
All my tender problems had to leave behind

It’s been umpteen summers and I’m not in my bed
On the back of the bus in a bunk with the band
Goin’ so hard gotta choose myself
Undеrpaid and overwhelmed
I might cook clеan but still won’t fold
Still workin’ all my life you know
Only God knows only God knows
Only God knows

Sixteen carriages drivin’ away
While I watch them ride with my fears away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long back road all the tears I fight
Sixteen carriages drivin’ away
While I watch them ride with my fears away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long back road all the tears I fight

Sixteen dollars workin’ all day
Ain’t got time to waste I got art to make
I got love to create on this holy night
They won’t dim my light all these years I fight

It’s been thirty-eight summers and I’m not in my bed
On the back of the bus in a bunk with the band
Goin’ so hard now I miss my kids
Overworked and overwhelmed
I might cook clean but still won’t fold
Still workin’ all my life you know
Only God knows only God knows
Only God knows

Sixteen carriages driving away
While I watch them ride with my fears away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long back road all the tears I fight
Sixteen carriages driving away
While I watch them ride with my fears away
To the summer sunset on a holy night
On a long back road all these tears I fight

Oh oh
Oh

At fifteen the innocence was gone astray
Had to take care of home at an early age
I saw Mama cryin’ I saw Daddy lyin’
Had to sacrifice and leave my fears behind
For legacy if it’s the last thing I do
You’ll remember me ’cause we got somethin’ to prove
In your memory on the highway to truth
Still see our faces when you close your eyes

Sixteen carriages drivin’ away
While I watch them ride with my dreams away
