Big Bone Lick
Trouble in Big Bone Lick: Unveiling the Shadows of Kentucky
Lyrics
I told 'em to find - I told
I instructed them to find their own way home
'em to find their own way home
Reiteration of advising others to find their own way home
I can't go lookin' for ya!
I cannot go searching for you
Now in Kentucky - in Kentucky there's
Referencing Kentucky
A town: Big Bone Lick
Refers to a town named Big Bone Lick in Kentucky
Ain't nuthin', nuthin' but trouble
Describes Big Bone Lick as a place of trouble
I get run down - I get gunned down from
Feeling exhausted and occasionally targeted violently
Time to time
Occasionally experiencing being worn down or attacked
I get run down - I get
Reiteration of feeling worn down or attacked periodically
Gunned down from time to time
Reiteration of experiencing being worn down or attacked from time to time
I told 'em to find - I told
I instructed them to find their own way home (repeated)
'em to find their own way home
Reiteration of advising others to find their own way home (repeated)
Simple very simple - mine wasn't
Emphasizing simplicity, contrasting with personal difficulty
Found - visibility nil
Unable to be found, zero visibility
A couple tons o pressure lay you
Describing intense pressure that can flatten and compress
Flat and so much thinner
Result of extreme pressure: flattened and significantly thinner
Simple very simple - mine wasn't
Emphasizing simplicity, contrasting with personal difficulty (repeated)
Found - visibility nil
Unable to be found, zero visibility (repeated)
A couple tons o pressure lay you
Describing intense pressure that can flatten and compress (repeated)
Flat and so much thinner
Result of extreme pressure: flattened and significantly thinner (repeated)
Simple very simple - mine wasn't
Emphasizing simplicity, contrasting with personal difficulty (repeated)
Found - visibility nil
Unable to be found, zero visibility (repeated)
A couple tons o pressure lay you
Describing intense pressure that can flatten and compress (repeated)
Flat and so much thinner
Result of extreme pressure: flattened and significantly thinner (repeated)
