Charley Crockett - The Valley Lyrics

I'm From San Benito,Texas 
Down a dirty dusty road 
There was sugarcane and cotton
How I used to watch it grow 

Then we moved up to Dallas 
I remember I was young 
I learned about the dollar 
Looked down the barrel of a gun

If you ask me where
I'm going I can't tell ya cuz I don't know
But in my mind I see the valley 
You should see the way it glows 

My daddy didn't know me 
My brother rolled the dice
My mama kept on working
And my sister paid a price 

Darkness did surround me
Trouble everywhere I turned
Then one day I started walking
Everything I've got I earned 

If you ask me where I'm going 
I can't tell ya cuz I don't know
But in my mind I see the valley 
You should see the way it glows 

Now you know my story 
I bet you got one like it too
May your curse become a blessing 
There ain't nothing else to do
