Karaoke Nose on the Grindstone Tyler Childers

Daddy worked like a mule mining pike county coal

He fucked up his back he couldn't work anymore

He said one of these days you'll get out of these hills

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

See the ways of this world just to bring you to tears

Keep the Lord in your heart you'll have nothing to fear

Live the best that you can and don't lie and don't steal

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

Daddy I've been trying

I just can't catch a break

There's too much in this world that I can't seem to shake

But I remember your words

Lord they bring me to chills

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

Keep in mind that a man's just as good as his word

It takes twice as long to build bridges you burn

And there is hurt you can cause time alone cannot heal

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

Daddy I've been trying

I just can't catch a break

There's too much in this world

I can't seem to shake

But I remember your words

Lord they bring me to chills

Keep your nose on the grindstone and out of the pills

Keep your nose on the grindstone
