Crooked Mile - Chris Knight

Her coal black eyes and her heartbroke smile

Followed me down a crooked mile

Everybody says we ain’t no good

We ain’t going back even if we could

Back in the woods where the law don’t go

Down in the holler where the wind don’t blow

Gonna raise us a family make us a home

We’ll be alright if they leave us alone

I ain’t ever had nothing

I ain’t never had nothing to hold on to

I ain’t even been living

Ain’t even been living till I found you

She followed me down a crooked mile

She ain’t got no spite ain’t got guile

She won’t let me quit won’t let me run

Holding me tight sleeping by her gun

I ain’t ever had nothing

I ain’t never had nothing to hold on to

I ain’t even been living

Ain’t even been living till I found you

Her coal black eyes and her heartbroke smile

Followed me down a crooked mile

Everybody says we ain’t no good

We ain’t going back even if we could

I ain’t ever had nothing

I ain’t never had nothing to hold on to

I ain’t even been living

Ain’t even been living till I found you

I ain’t ever had nothing

I ain’t never had nothing till I found you
