Carolina Drama (Acoustic Mix) - The Raconteurs[00:00:01]

Written by：Brendan Benson/Jack White[00:00:02]

I'm not sure if there's a point to this story[00:00:09]

But I'm going to tell it again[00:00:12]

So many other people try to tell the tale[00:00:17]

Not one of them knows the end[00:00:19]

It was a junk house in South Carolina[00:00:34]

Held a boy the age of ten[00:00:38]

Along with his older brother Billy[00:00:42]

And a mother and her boyfriend[00:00:45]

Who was a triple loser with some blue tattoos[00:00:48]

That were given to him when he was young[00:00:51]

And a drunk temper that was easy to lose[00:00:54]

And thank god he didn't own a gun[00:00:56]

Well Billy woke up in the back of his truck[00:01:06]

Took a minute to open his eyes[00:01:08]

He took a peep into the back of the house[00:01:13]

And found himself a big surprise[00:01:15]

He didn't see his brother but there was his mother[00:01:18]

With her red headed head in her hands[00:01:21]

While the boyfriend had his gloves wrapped around an old priest[00:01:24]

Trying to choke the man[00:01:27]

Billy looked up from the window to the truck[00:02:11]

Threw up and had to struggle to stand[00:02:14]

He saw that red necked bastard with a hammer[00:02:19]

Turn the priest into a shell of a man[00:02:21]

The priest was putting up the fight of his life[00:02:24]

But he was old and he was bound to lose[00:02:27]

The boyfriend hit as hard as he could[00:02:30]

And knocked the priest right down to his shoes[00:02:32]

Well now Billy knew but never actually met[00:02:41]

The preacher lying there in the room[00:02:44]

He heard himself say that must be my daddy[00:02:49]

Then he knew what he was gonna do[00:02:51]

Billy got up enough courage took it up[00:02:55]

And grabbed the first blunt thing he could find[00:02:57]

It was a cold glass bottle of milk[00:03:00]

That got delivered every morning at nine[00:03:03]

Billy broke in and saw the blood on the floor and[00:03:47]

He turned around and put the lock on the door[00:03:50]

He looked dead into the boyfriend's eye[00:03:52]

His mother was a ghost too upset to cry then[00:03:55]

He took a step toward the man on the ground[00:03:58]

From his mouth trickled out a little audible sound[00:04:00]

He heard the boyfriend shout get out[00:04:04]

And Billy said not till I know what this is all about[00:04:06]

Well this preacher here was attacking your mama[00:04:09]

But Billy knew just who was starting the drama[00:04:12]

So Billy took dead aim at his face[00:04:15]

And smashed the bottle on the man who left his dad in disgrace and[00:04:17]

The white milk dripped down with the blood and the[00:04:21]

Boyfriend fell down dead for good[00:04:24]

Right next to the preacher who was gasping for air[00:04:26]

And billy shouted daddy why'd you have to come back here[00:04:29]

His mama reached behind the sugar and honey and[00:04:32]

Pulled out an envelope filled with money[00:04:35]

Your daddy gave us this she collapsed in tears[00:04:38]

He's been paying all the bills for years[00:04:41]

Mama let's put this body underneath the trees[00:04:43]

And put daddy in the truck and head to Tennessee[00:04:46]

Just then his little brother came in[00:04:49]

Holding the milk man's hat and a bottle of gin singing[00:04:51]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:04:54]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:04:58]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:01]

La la la la la la[00:05:03]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:06]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:09]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:12]

La la la la la la[00:05:15]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:18]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:21]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:25]

La la la la la la la la yeah[00:05:28]

Well now you heard another side to the story[00:05:32]

But you wanna know how it ends[00:05:35]

If you must know the truth about the tale[00:05:40]

Go and ask the milkman[00:05:43]
