Little Darling Lyrics - Indigo Girls

Hey little darling 

There's something that you should know 

This things gonna hound every soul 

This thing they won't let us go 

Gonna break us down to nothing 

Gonna eat us from the inside out 

Hey little darling 

I don't want you to feeling the fallout 

Ah when the cancer finally took him 

I was watching the trucks pull in 

Me and your daddy we had a job 

Under the ground mining uranium 

Some things your daddy leaves you 

Some things he don't 

Some things are gonna be here anyhow 

And some things just won't 

One thing I want you to understand 

Is you ain't gotta be no mining man 

I curse the day that I went down 

And I pulled that shit out of the ground

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Now we were living over in nevada 

That's where your people come from 

Your grandma would take me and your daddy 

On down to the gunnery range 

We sit and watch the bombs blow 

Until the sun goes down 

All those colors running like the painted desert 

And you get to see it now 

Them government boys have something so damn secret 

They had to hide it in the desert sand 

Out there the skies so big 

And there ain't no mistaking it 

Whose got the winning hand 

Ah 

Ah ah ah ah

I said I've been all the way to alaska 

To a town they call point of hope 

Where they took some of what we got down here 

Just to see how it would grow 

I hear the lichen bought it 

And now it's running through the caribou 

I said soon little darling 

You'll get to feel it too 

Get to feel it too 

Oh I said soon little darling 

You'll get to feel it to 

Hmm hmm hmm yeah 

Oh yeah hmm hmm 

Hmm hmm hmm 

Oh yeah hmm hmm 

Hmm hmm hmm
