Copperhead Road
Copperhead Road - Levi Stoker
My granddaddy ran it in a flathead Ford
With a trunk full of fire and the fear of the Lord
Now the fields are all empty and the barn's falling in
But the hills are still humming with the family sin
I'm sitting in a hollow where the shadows get thick
Counting out the minutes by the oil lamp wick
And the old man's badges and the dust on the floor
And a ghost of a whisper knocking at the door
Go take me back down to Copperhead Road
Where the whiskey is heavy and the spirit is old
Bound by the blood and the wire and the rust
Watching my history turn into the dust
Yeah, the mountain's a master that you never can flee
On Copperhead Road where the shadows are free
I brought back some seeds from a faraway land
And I bedded them deep with a trembling hand
Well, they're circling in the middle of the day
But they don't know the secrets that the limestone can stay
I've got a trip wire set, a hard made of lead
And a long list of names that are already dead
Oh, take me back down to Copperhead Road
Where the whiskey is heavy and the spirit is old
Bound by the blood and the wire and the rust
Watching my history turn into the dust
Yeah, the mountain is a master that you never can flee
On Copperhead Road where the shadows are free
They're coming for me
They're on time
Yeah
Yeah
You can't go on the spirit when the roots are so deep
I'm the only one left with a secret to keep
Copperhead Road
The end of the road
