Stoney End

Laura Nyro

I was born from love

and my poor mother worked the mines

I was raised on the good book jesus

till I read between the lines

now I don't believe I want to see the mornin'

going down to stoney end

I never wanted to go down to stoney end

mama let me start all over

cradle me

mama cradle me again



I can still remember him

with lovelight in his eyes

but the light flickered out and parted

as the sun began to rise

now I don't believe I want to see the mornin'

going down to stoney end

I never wanted to go down to stoney end

mama let me start all over

cradle me

mama cradle me again



never mind the forecast

cause the sky has lost control

cause the fury and the broken thunder's

come to match my ragin' soul

now I don't believe I want to see the mornin'
