Shine - Randy Houser

Behind a tar paper shack back in the holler

Old man shucking corn and coiling copper

He’s about the only business in town

That ain’t been boarded up or the bank shut down

At first glance you might think time were hard

-chorus-

There ain’t no coal comin' out of that shaft

There’s rust all over the railroad track

Can’t see nothing but a big ol' black cloud up in the sky

And if the good Lord don’t see fit to a little sun

Down on these pines that’s fine

Ol' Leonard gonna make us

Shine

Way back before these mines were tapped

We had a bigger dot there on the map

Who knows we might get there again

And who cares that train ain’t rolling in

Look a yonder coming 'round the mountain

-chorus-

He’s gonna make us

Shine

There ain’t no coal comin' out of that shaft

There’s rust all over the railroad track

Can’t see nothing but a big ol' black cloud up in the sky

And if the good Lord don’t see fit to send a little sun

Down on these pines that’s fine

That’ll be just find

Ol' Leonard gonna make us

Shine

Ol' Leonard gonna make us shine

Ol' Leonard gonna make us shine

Make us shine Leonard
