lyrics

One hundred miles from the sea to the city there's campfires and ladders and bridges and dryin' out wheat fields and everyone here drives real slow until they're half way and when the sun goes down all the cars crash up the highways
one hundred porches with couches and heart ached folks they're counting flies in their coffee and today is a holiday and everyone woke up early and tomorrow is sunday and dinner comes on a plastic plate

one hundred hours spent working a week and still the man knocks on your door and says your gotta leave empty out the house and pack up your car and drive across town that's where all the poor go to settle down

one hundred people all dancing around the fire the elders and witches and gangsters are all holding hands singing "from the evils of wealth we will withstand and from the power of the rich we will protect this land"
one hundred miles from this land to that and in between there's poverty and slavery and all kinds of misery and you have the nerve to say they got what they deserve well thinking like one day is gonna get you killed and one day when i have grand children i will speak to them of how i grew up by the water not by the sea

"God, Forgive These Bastards" Songs From The Forgotten Life Of Henry Turner (2012)
by The Taxpayers

supported by 5 fans who also own “One Hundred Miles”

The Taxpayers were able to put down a tacklist of songs that allow us to go on a journey. In this album we experience the manic highs and lows one may experience in a life long battle with deteriorating mental health. The picture at times grim and beautiful is one I continually come back to as its tragedy never fades. Ulysses Johnson
