Old Blood |
| What’s that I hear out in my garden |
| Run run sonny boy and get my gun |
| I think I see the neighbor boy Bud Melvin |
| Digging in your mama’s flowerpot |
| Whats that he’s doing to the rhubarb |
| I swear I’ve seen him violate the leaves |
| Belonging to the tree that I once planted |
| In the honor of the day my daddy fell |
| «O papa please, I know your troubles |
| They been hard and they been long |
| Fighting all these years with the neighbor’s kin |
| (but) This boy before us don’t deserve the suffering» |
| Sonny that’s a woman’s voice you’ve taken |
| Your mercy-cryin-diplomatic tongue |
| This boy I see before us in the garden |
| Is guilty being born a son Melvin |
| I’ll be damned before I let our family’s shame go unavenged |
| I’ll be damned before I recognize the day |
| When the Melvin kids inherit that old saw mill |
| That stole my daddy’s lovely guitar hands |
