gogopilot - firefly lyrics

handed down a southern pride that taught us how to hate
picking cotton broke our backs and filled us up with rage
take another swig and drink it down, let it burn deep
and if she talks back, slap her down, and teach her when to speak

firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
give me one good reason
firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
you’ve been keeping secrets

fourteen days and thirteen nights ago i dug her grave
i dropped her there without a care with a shot of twenty gage
the harvest moon was in the sky and the cotton’s in the fields
she was there lying in the ground, all swollen, dead, and still

firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
give me one good reason
firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
you’ve been keeping secrets
firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
give me one good reason
firefly, don’t you tell me no lie
come the k!lling season

i bet you’ve never seen no woman beg like that before
i bet you’ve never shot a man running for the door
i bet you’ve never seen that look on her face before
scratching at the dirt as you fill the hole some more
sixteen bales, it’s hot as h+ll, and the sheriff’s been around
he’s looking where he don’t belong, and he’s staring people down
the dogs are running through the fields and the thicket’s ablaze with fire
burning back the scrub that covers up the funeral pyre

firefly
firefly away
