Appalachian Scream

(feltenberger, yashinsky)



We live for the mountains

'cause the mountains give us life

But the pits were too inviting

And they stripped away our lives



If i could holler from this hollow

For just a little help

I'm sure the neighbors would come running

Just to see for them selves



And i don't give a damn

If you don't understand



(chorus)

Cause i hear the voices calling

They're sending me a warning about you

Is it a haunting song from a familiar dream

Or just an appalachian scream



We're neighbors we're not friends

I don't trust them a bit

Call it baseless paranoia

Or the way that we live



We're all escaping something

But we're blind to what it is

If i'd turn my back he'd kill me

And i'd do the same to him



And i don't give a damn

If you don't understand



(chorus)



I built this shit from nothing

I brought it up with love

Considering what i got now

It's still not very much



After 20 years time's forgotten me

And i wish it all the same

But they're knocking at my neighbors' door

And soon they'll call my name



(chorus)
