Coal Lyrics - Singles - Michael Penn

Who'd of ever thought to 

call that coal? 

If my hands were warm then I might 

I don't know 

I keep panning 

and in my reach it 

Hangs on 

Water falls down 

There's no gold in this barren town 

"Used to be a man could make his way 

with a barrel full of this black coal" 

half certain you'd say 

but in my reach it 

Hangs on 

Water falls down 

There's no gold in this barren town. 

Look at every angle 

and draw a square 

find some nut you can instead untighten 

Watch me in the corner 

with a pair 

under certain pressure 

ace, a diamond 

So run your fingers down my back 

you'd make such a cool distraction 

cause in my reach it 

Hangs on 

yeah, the walls down 

but there's no gold 

there's a line drawn and crossed 

by the banks. 

By the way 

water falls down 

there's no gold in this barren town.
