Lyrics
Even the old folks never knew
Why they call it like they do
And I been wondering since the age of two
Down on Copperline
Copper head, copper beech
Copper kettles sitting side by each
Copper coil, cup o'Georgia peach
Down on Copperline
Half a mile down to Morgan Creek
I'm only living till the end of the week
Hercules and a hog-nosed snake
Down on Copperline
Baby down on Copperline
Summer night on Copperline
Slip away past supper time
Wood smoke and moonshine yeah
Down on Copperline
One time I saw my daddy dance
Watched him moving like a man in a trance
He bought it back from the war in France
Down on Copperline
Branch water and tomato wine
Creosote and turpentine
Sour mash and new moon shine
Down on Copperline
Baby Down on Copperline
Her first kiss ever I took
Stole a page from a romance book
The sky opened and the earth it shook
Down on Copperline
Took a fall from a windy height
I only knew how to hold on tight
And pray for love enough to last all night
Down on Copperline
Baby down on copperline
I tried to go back, as if I could
All spec house and plywood yeah
Tore up and tore up good
Down on Copperline
It doesn't come as a surprise to me
It never touched my memory
Man, lifting up and rising free
Down on Copperline
Half a mile down to Morgan Creek
I'm only living to the end of the week
Hercules and a hog-nosed snake
Down on Copperline,
Take me down on Copperline
We were down on Copperline
Lay me down on Copperline
