Lyrics
Ol' jebadiah don't you let me down You promised me a place from here much better There's aftermath to them ties and tracks, Yeah you're a rail dog But would you give it all up for me You said you'd save a dime a day and build a log cabin Down there by the river Where we can raise the kids the best there is, Not worry bout an arrowhead and quiver Yeah this place ain't saving grace You can't buy more peace than it pays There's war paint, more blood than there ain't And there's smoke down there on the river. Ol' jebadiah gave it two more years And he landed a job with the man sellin' off land plots He buried away the gold he made and he saved enough To build that home for mary Another dime a day kept the wolves away He made a deal with the tribe And he hoped the chief would keep it It all came down to the plan he made, Yeah there's a fiery grave for the beardless ones Who need it
