russell moore & iiird tyme out - poison cove lyrics
back in the days of my childhood
life was simple and passed by so slow
we lived on a farm beyond the backwoods
in the valley where the pigeon river flows
i’d get up every morning with the rising sun
and work the land with my hands and a hoe
in the afternoon i’d slip off when the chores were done
to the one place momma warned me not to go
poison cove, so many years ago
but it’s like yesterday within my memory
poison cove, i was only ten years old
still i carry your secrets round with me
i was headed home one evening along about twilight
when i came upon a moonshine still
the bootleg man was waiting for a gunfight
cause a revenuer was coming down the hill
hid there in the shadows and too scared to run
i held my breath and didn’t make a sound
i heard the fiery blast from a shotgun
then i saw the lawman fall to the ground
poison cove, so many years ago
but it’s like yesterday within my memory
poison cove+ i was only ten years old
still i carry your secrets round with me
in that moment, my life was forever changed
now i’m haunted by what can’t be undone
i still see the lawman dying on that mountain range
and my daddy, holding the smoking gun
poison cove, so many years ago
but it’s like yesterday within my memory
poison cove, i was only ten years old
still i carry your secrets round with me
yes i carry your secrets round with me
