lyrics

I'm so tired of all this hate and sick of fighting
Seems the more I say the less communicating
All I need's a soapbox and a lonesome mountain tune
All the wonders of the wilderness to get me through

Gonna find me a gospel-singin', Godless-thinkin'
Appalachian country girl with tangles in her hair
Gonna raise some chickens, gonna raise the dead
Gonna raise some holy hell
Gonna find me a perfect little corner of the world to die
With a penny in my pocket and my darlin' clogger by my side

Gonna clawhammer crazy, tell a story of old glories
That were buried at the bottom of the deep dark blue
Gonna sing Idumea, Weeping Sinner, Holy Manna, Hallelujah
With the Satan-fearin', sacred harpin' crew
Gonna leather up my skin
And bare my sins under a blue ridge sun
Gonna make my peace with enemies
And shoot the breeze with everyone

Let it be seen, let it be known
You made your bed you better lie in it alone
Let it be seen, let it be known
You're leavin' when you could be takin' me home

I'm so tired of all this fightin', fucking sick of all this hatin'
Seems the more I say the less I can communicate
All I need is a soapbox and a high lonesome crooner
All the wonders of the wilderness to get me through the day
Gonna howl at the moon
And take a ride to the wrong end of town
Gotta tell someone you love them
Just before your body hits the ground
