The Family - Nina Simone.mp3

[00:14.46] The weevils all took to cotton and cows all took
[00:18.60] to dry
[00:20.58] But the varmints left behind, some took up to
[00:22.41] die
[00:26.07] Trouble took to Daddy like dew drops take to
[00:29.55] night
[00:31.50] Mama took to cryin' a lot and Daddy took to
[00:32.88] wine
[00:35.88] And I took a train outta there
[00:39.00] I told the engineer I don't believe there's no
[00:42.63] help, maybe
[00:45.51] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[00:47.79] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[00:53.43] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[00:58.98] Flowers took to Daddy and Daddy, he took to
[01:04.65] calm
[01:04.74] Sister took to black wheel nights and Mama cried
[01:07.89] alone
[01:09.96] Brother, he took up preaching and the bank man
[01:13.20] took the farm
[01:15.12] They came and took my mom away, she can't do
[01:18.57] herself no harm
[01:20.85] And I took a train outta there
[01:22.74] I told the engineer I don't believe there's no
[01:26.16] help, maybe
[01:27.09] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[01:31.29] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[01:32.64] Heaven help the tie that binds a family
[02:25.38] The weevils all took to cotton and cows all took

[02:36.48] Trouble took to Daddy like dew drops take to
[02:40.14] night

[02:45.15] wine
[02:45.84] And I took a train outta there
[02:49.02] I told the engineer I don't believe there's no
[02:52.32] help handy
[02:53.25] Looks like even God can't save the family
[02:58.71] Looks like only God can save the family
[03:07.26] And I took a train outta there
[03:10.47] I told the engineer I don't believe there's no
