Decoration Day lyrics

ItęŠÆ Decoration Day.
And IęŠ³e a mind to roll a stone on his grave.
But what would he say.
ꏔeeping me down, boy, wonꊰ keep me away

ItęŠÆ Decoration Day.
And I knew the Hill Boys would put us away,
But my Daddy wasnꊰ afraid.
He said ę„eęŠ£l fight till the last LawsonęŠÆ last living day

I never knew how it all got started
A problem with Holland before we were born
And I donꊰ know the name of that boy we tied down
And beat till he just couldnꊰ walk anymore.
But I know the caliber in DaddyęŠÆ chest
And I know what Holland Hill drives.
The state let him go, but I guess it was best
Cause nobody needs all us Lawsons alive.

Daddy said one of the boys had come by
The Lumber ManęŠÆ favorite son.
He said, ꏃeat him real good but donꊰ dare let him die
And if you see Holland Hill run.
Now I said, ꐕhey ainꊰ give us trouble no more
That we ainꊰ brought down on ourselves
But a chain on my back and my ear to the floor
And IęŠ£l send all the Hill Boys to hell.

ItęŠÆ Decoration Day
And IęŠ³e got a family in Mobile Bay
And theyęŠ³e never seen my DaddyęŠÆ grave.
But that donꊰ bother me, it ainꊰ marked anyway.
Cause I got dead brothers in Lauderdale south
And I got dead brothers in east Tennessee.
My Daddy got shot right in front of his house
He had noone to fall on but me.

ItęŠÆ Decoration Day
And IęŠ³e got a mind to go spit on his grave.
If I was a Hill, Iꊎ have put him away
And Iꊎ fight till the last LawsonęŠÆ last living day.
Iꊎ fight till the last LawsonęŠÆ last living day.
Iꊎ fight till the last LawsonęŠÆ last living day.
