[Intro][Primeira Parte]Well he came from Northern IrelandSearching for the free man's groundAnd he came to bet his fortuneOn a West Virginia plow[Ponte][Segunda Parte]He built a house of timberAnd raised a redhead sonThen they worked the land togetherAnd prayed the rain would come[Refrão]There's a scarecrow in the gardenThat looks like LuciferAnd I've been reading RevelationsWith my bare feet in the river[Ponte][Terceira Parte]Well the redhead's son got olderAnd took a brown eyed wifeAnd the fields were green as dollarsCause the dirt was black as night[Ponte][Quarta Parte]I came in late SeptemberThe youngest one of threeAnd my sisters off and marriedSo the land was left to me[Refrão][Quinta Parte]I know every single fencepostEvery rock that goes aroundI've been staring at the red oakWhere I know they'll lay me down[Sexta Parte]The fields ain't what they once wereThe rains just seem to floodAnd I've been thinking about that riverWondering how it turned to bloodI've been sitting here all morningI was sitting here all nightThere's a bible in my left handAnd a pistol in my right
