Lyrics
______________________________________________________________________
(GUITAR INTRO)
if I fell off to sleep and did not wake
would the Lord my soul to take
and could the land that I've known also die
do you think of you and wonder why
down in leatherwood
that thought we leave behind
down in leatherwood
country love's gonna steal your mind
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
was a mad house all flooded by the rain
or did I once live it in a dream
throwing all good minutes to the sea
did you know the sky can also bleed
down in leatherwood
that thought we leave behind
down in leatherwood
country love's gonna steal your mind
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
(GUITAR SOLO)
an inner voice it is telling me my verse
oh and if you're listening it can only make it worse
it may be that there is a master plan
on he who knows, he must be a great man
down in leatherwood
hat thought we leave behind
down in leatherwood
country love's gonna steal your mind
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
be blue,
be blue,
be blue
