Scarecrow In The Garden - Chris Stapleton (克里斯·斯特普尔顿)[00:00:00]
Written by:Chris Stapleton/Brice Long/Matt Fleener[00:00:01]
Well he came from Northern Ireland[00:00:18]
Searching for the free man's ground[00:00:22]
And he came to bet his fortune[00:00:26]
On a west virginia plow[00:00:30]
He built a house of timber[00:00:38]
And raised a redhead son[00:00:42]
Then they worked the land together[00:00:46]
And prayed the rain would come[00:00:49]
There's a scarecrow in the garden[00:00:56]
That looks like lucifer[00:00:59]
And I've been reading revelations[00:01:03]
With my bare feet in the river[00:01:07]
Well the redhead's son got older[00:01:29]
And took a brown eyed wife[00:01:33]
And the fields were green as dollars[00:01:37]
Cause the dirt was black as night[00:01:40]
I came in late September[00:01:47]
The youngest one of three[00:01:50]
And my sisters off and married[00:01:54]
So the land was left to me[00:01:58]
There's a scarecrow in the garden[00:02:04]
That looks like lucifer[00:02:08]
And I've been reading revelations[00:02:12]
With my bare feet in the river[00:02:16]
I know every single fencepost[00:02:22]
Every rock that goes around[00:02:26]
I've been staring at the red oak[00:02:30]
Where I know they'll lay me down[00:02:33]
The fields ain't what they once were[00:02:40]
The rains just seem to flood[00:02:44]
And I've been thinking about that river[00:02:48]
Wondering how it turned to blood[00:02:51]
I've been sitting here all morning[00:02:58]
I was sitting here all night[00:03:02]
There's a bible in my left hand[00:03:06]
And a pistol in my right[00:03:10]
