[00:00.41]When the Work Runs Out | Southern Folk Music - GHOST OF THE SOUTH
[00:02.75]Lyrics by：Andrew M
[00:03.67]Composed by：Andrew M
[00:13.43]There's a line at the mill
[00:16.94]It's grown too long
[00:20.39]Hands in pockets
[00:23.55]Faces drawn
[00:26.63]A whistle blows
[00:29.62]But it's all for show
[00:33.03]The wheels don't turn
[00:36.00]They know where to go
[00:40.85]What do we do when the works runs out
[00:43.29]No answer left just the same old doubt
[00:46.44]We were promised more
[00:48.07]We were promised plenty
[00:49.92]Now the cupboard's bare
[00:51.63]The field's near empty
[01:05.55]The road stretches far
[01:08.38]But it leads nowhere
[01:12.23]Old trucks park
[01:15.35]Engine stripped bare
[01:18.58]Men on porches
[01:21.84]Staring through time
[01:25.03]Counting hours that don't feel like mine
[01:31.95]It's the quiet that cuts
[01:33.52]It's the still that stings
[01:35.19]When there's no machine no hammer's ring oh
[01:38.82]What do we do when the work runs out
[01:41.62]No answers left just the same old doubt
[01:44.86]We were promised more
[01:46.46]We were promised plenty
[01:48.11]Now the cupboard's bare
[01:50.02]The field's near empty
[02:07.68]I heard them talking down by the fence
[02:11.24]Words like fire the air was tense
[02:14.25]They spoke of blame
[02:15.75]They spoke of plans
[02:17.27]But the talk just echoes like hollowed out lands
