• 01-Country Death Song

I had me a wife
I had me some daughters
I tried so hard
I never knew still waters
Nothin to eat and nothin to drink
Nothin for a man to do but sit around and think
Nothin for a man to do but sit around and think

I'm thinkin and thinkin til there ain't nothing I ain't thunk
Breathin in the stink til finally I stunk
It was at that time I swear I lost my mind
Started makin plans to kill my own kind
Started makin plans to kill my own kind

Come little daughter I said to the youngest one
Put your coat on, we'll have some fun
We'll go out to the mountains, the one to explore
Her face, it lit up, I'm standin by the door
Her face, it lit up, I'm standin by the door

Come little daughter, I will carry the lanterns
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caverns
We'll go out tonight, we'll go to the caves
Kiss your mother tonight and remember that god saves
Kiss your mother tonight and remember that god saves

I lead her to a hole, a deep black well
I said make a wish, make sure and not tell
Close your eyes, dear, and count to seven
Know your papa loves you, the children go to heaven
Know your papa loves you, the children go to heaven

I gave her a push, I gave her a shove
I pushed will all my might, I pushed with all my love
I threw my child into a bottomless pit
Screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit
She was screaming as she fell, but I never heard her hit

Gather round boys to the tale that I tell
You wanna know how to take a short trip to hell
It's guaranteed to get your own place in hell
Just take your lovely daughter and push her in the well
Just take your lovely daughter and push her in the well

Don't speak to me of lovers with a broken heart
You wanna know what will really tear you apart
I'm goin out to the barn with a never-stopin pain
I'm goin out to the barn to hang myself in shame
