Underground Folk Rebel Doc Burkhardt - Wausau, WI Lyrics

O' Here we are again
And I know I must slow down time
But I'm just and old man
Who was born down in the mine
Where they harvest the coal
And they turn it into snow
And it rains down from the sky
And covers the forest floor
The treetops all in a line
That border I ninety-four

Come to my hometown
When no one is around
And tell me what you've found
While laying on the ground
Come to my hometown
Come to my hometown

Standing in line again
What will today's work bring
We've been steady for some weeks
And hoping for an early spring
I see an outline of a man
Who looks like someone I know
And it just might be my brother
Who I haven't seen in years
So I tug on their coat
Choking back the tears

Come to my hometown
When no one is around
And tell me what you've found
While laying on the ground
Come to my hometown
Come to my hometown
