Appalachia Kid
About Appalachia Kid
“Appalachia Kid” is the closest I’ve come to telling my true life’s story in music so far.
Growing up as an only child in the woods near Rogersville, Tennessee, I had plenty of time and cousins to teach me about the ways of the world.
It is my hope that listening to this song will transport you to the corner of that closest in the forest with me, embraced in the mountain community and culture I grew up in.
You are invited to come along for the ride –

Lyrics
Appalachia Kid
Surrounded by smallness
And mama's silk pajamas
There's comfort in that
Closeness in that closet in the forest
Where I grew up in the country
In a town you never heard of
Before
You don't accidentally end up
Off the grid
Never did meet a stranger
Know the danger
Unless you grew up like we did
Appalachia kid
You don't come here for no reason
You best recollect the season
You go visiting your mamaw
Round and round the mountain town knoll
The city kids don't ride the school bus but
You know what the country cousins did behind the woodshed
You don't accidentally end up
Off the grid
Never did meet a stranger
Know the danger
Unless you grew up like we did
Appalachia kid
