I never knew I was poor Until one day I went to the store
Until one day I slammed your door As you scream and throw beer bottles at me
You can walk a long way on this one quiet corner path Where I got my first kiss and my first ****
Them **** blankenship boys never do there chores Them boys steal and grow *** in the woods They talk our name in the barber stop
Them **** mountains are haunted Through and ******* through With the ghosts of a thousand indinas Pulling your hair
It was a hot summer And your mom wasn't home
Ladies and gentlemen Here's the big show About the old drunk ******* The tanned dark farmer And his son plow a row
Straight rows long and deep rows Full of cool black earth I put my hand to the plough When I was thirteen And my dad got sick Then that summer he died
The preacher came But we were all still asleep Cold milk bottles brought in from the doorstep
Summer is long and hot night a devious witche's brew Somewhere up the holler Stop askin so many questions boy! I told you these ******* mountains are haunted
