shenandoah - under the kudzu lyrics
[verse 1]
well i live all alone in chickasaw county out on one-oh-nine
where the run-down barns and rusty tractors
are covered in kudzu vines
now for eighty-five years, my people raised cotton
’til granddaddy lost this land
now we’re scattered all over this end of the state
gettin’ by any way that we can, but
[chorus]
under the kudzu, the mighty south lies sleepin’
dreamin’ of glory that slowly slipped away
and on nights like this, boys, i can almost hear her weepin’
out there, under the kudzu
[verse 2]
if you follow that hot tar road down to jackson
you’ll p-ss through plantersville
that’s where i worked and spent my money
until they closed down the mill
i got real bad to drink so my sweet samantha
packed up her things and moved
i hear she’s a qualified beautician
workin’ down in baton rouge, and
[chorus]
under the kudzu, the mighty south lies sleepin’
dreamin’ of glory that slowly slipped away
and on nights like this, boys, i can almost hear her weepin’
out there, under the kudzu
[verse 3]
yes i’ll walk on over to the pit stop market
and buy me a c-ke to drink
i’ll lay on this hood of this old camaro
and wait for the sun to sink
[instrumental break]
[tag]
on nights like this, boys, i can almost hear her weepin’
out there under the kudzu
out there under the kudzu
[instrumental]
