A Valley Son (Sparing) - Grandaddy

On the beach, within arm’s reach

There’s nothin' more this shore can teach

The maltreatment of the sun

You’ve lost a valley son

He was down with bein' done

But now he’s done with bein' down

Mis maltreatment has a sound

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son

The engine in his heart

Gets dirty, then don’t start

Man, it all just falls apart

He can’t watch his other shine

As he’s rottin' on the vine

This maltreatment over time

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son

You’ve lost a valley son
