Lyrics 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

Well I'm a-thinkin' and thinkin' 'till there's nothin' I ain't thunk

Breathin' in the stink 'till finally I stunk

It was at that time

I swear I lost my mind

I 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 mountains

The one to explore

Her face then lit up

I was standin' by the door

Her face then lit up

I was 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 goodnight and remember that God saves

I led her to a hole

A deep black well

I said Make a wish

Make sure and not tell

And close your eyes dear and count to seven

You know your papa loves you

Good children go to heaven

You know your papa loves you

Good children go to heaven

I gave her a push

I gave her a shove

I pushed with all my might

I pushed with all my love

I threw my child into a bottomless pit

She was screamin' as she fell but I never heard her hit

Gather 'round boys to this 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

Take your lovely daughter and throw her in the well

Don't speak to me of lovers with a broken heart

You wanna know what can really tear you apart

I'm goin' out to the barn

Will I never stop in pain

I'm goin' out to the barn to hang myself in shame
