chris stapleton - scarecrow in the garden lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well he came from northern ireland
searching for the free man’s ground
and he came to bet his fortune
on a west virginia plow
he built a house of timber
and raised a redhead son
then they worked the land together
and prayed the rain would come

[chorus]
there’s a scarecrow in the garden
that looks like lucifer
and i’ve been reading revelations
with my bare feet in the river

[verse 2]
well the redhead’s son got older
and took a brown eyed wife
and the fields were green as dollars
cause the dirt was black as night
i came in late september
the youngest one of three
and my sisters off and married
so the land was left to me

[chorus]
there’s a scarecrow in the garden
that looks like lucifer
and i’ve been reading revelations
with my bare feet in the river

[verse 3]
i know every single fencepost
every rock that goes around
i’ve been staring at the red oak
where i know they’ll lay me down

[bridge]
the fields ain’t what they once were
the rains just seem to flood
and i’ve been thinking about that river
wondering how it turned to blood

[outro]
i’ve been sitting here all morning
i was sitting here all night
there’s a bible in my left hand
and a pistol in my right

- chris stapleton
