[Intro] [Verse 1] Well, the sun’s gone down, but her words won’t fade, She’s pickin’ at my soul like a debt unpaid. Every sigh, every groan, cuts like a k***e, Lord, I’m drownin’ in the shadow of my own life. [Chorus] I got the weary man blues, oh, I’m sinkin’ low, Her voice is a storm and my heart’s buried in snow. If the river runs quiet, maybe I’ll find peace, But tonight, these chains around my soul won’t release. [Verse 2] She says I don’t work, says I don’t try, But I’m bustin’ my bones ‘neath a d**d-end sky. The clock ticks slow, but my pain’s on fast, One more word, and I’ll breathe my last. [Chorus] I got the weary man blues, oh, I’m sinkin’ low, Her voice is a storm and my heart’s buried in snow. If the river runs quiet, maybe I’ll find peace, But tonight, these chains around my soul won’t release. [Bridge] Oh, I hear that train whistle, lonely and long, It’s hummin’ a hymn where I don’t belong. The tracks they whisper, “Come lose your name,” But the Lord won’t judge till I’m done with this pain. [Verse 3] I wrote her a letter, stained with my tears, “Forgive me, darlin’, for my final fears. The world’s gone heavy, and my spirit’s run thin, I’m trading these blues for the silence within.” [Chorus] I got the weary man blues, oh, I’m sinkin’ low, Her voice is a storm and my heart’s buried in snow. If the river runs quiet, maybe I’ll find peace, But tonight, these chains around my soul won’t release. [Outro]
