Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tied down with a full heart in my wild days from an early start
Fell hard at twenty-two, landed softly right by you
Gasp for breath in mountain air, drove across the plains with no cares
Chasin' dreams like wildfire, in my kids' eyes, I see that desire
[Chorus]
They're pullin' me from way back when
Tied to the old ways of all my kin
Preachin' the word down in the mines
Out in the hayfields, beneath the Seneca skies
Strike me down if I cut family ties
[Verse 2]
Born to a world that's all been found, proud of these songs I sing now
First comes first, not me or you, under God, it's those baby blues
Gone away from time to time, but that don't mean I don't tie a line
Pull me back if I fall through, damn silver, damn gold too
[Chorus]
They're pullin' me from way back when
Tied to the old ways of all my kin
Preachin' the word down in the mines
Out in the hayfields, beneath the Seneca skies
Strike me down if I cut family ties
[Chorus]
They're pullin' me from way back when
Tied to the old ways of all my kin
Preachin' the word down in the mines
Out in the hayfields, beneath the Seneca skies
Strike me down if I cut family ties
[Outro]
Those family ties
Those family ties
