jay munly – cattle, i will hang lyrics

Loading...

mr. murphy gathered us around
put us in the dying field
he said, “men, it’s been a bad year around here”
he said we should play a little game
to alleviate this pain
so he grabbed my pop by the neck
i guess my pop played his game

[spoken]
see y’all, me myself, i was just watchin’ the men scuffle their boots on the ground and lookin’ dog-faced, not lookin’ one-another in the eye. an’ see, me myself, i was ducked down behind this dirt pile and not understandin’ this game that was goin’ on until mr. murphy, until he caught my eye

[chorus]
and if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
all your cattle, i will hang
and if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
all your crops, they’ll go, they’ll go away

so i ran seven miles out to murphy’s farm
i threw a rock at the window
and isabella murphy, she sauntered down the stairs
she grabbed my wrists, she said “let’s go”
and then she pulled me out to the dying field
pushed me down and straddled me there
then i cupped my hands between her crotch
caught the water from her hair

[spoken]
and with my hands cupped, holdin’ isabella’s water, i shoved her out of the way and i ran seven miles back into my hometown. i came to the town well, held my hands, cupped with isabella’s water high, opened ’em up, and now this town, it knows the murphy’s hell

[chorus]
and if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
all your cattle, i will hang
and if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
oh, your daughter, she will, she’ll learn my name
and i’ll hang your cattle
and i’ll bleed your pork
and i’ll shave your chickens
and i’ll piss on your porch

yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah, we done
drunk the pain
yeah we done
drown the pain
yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah, we done
drunk the pain
yeah we done
drown the pain

[chorus]
but if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
all your cattle, i will hang
and if you see my ma today, down upon you, i’ll bring my pain again
all your children, they will come, they’ll come away

yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah, we done
drunk the pain
yeah we done
drown the pain
yeah we done
drink the pain
yeah we done
drank the pain
yeah, we done
drunk the pain
yeah we done
drown, we drown the pain
