strange philosophies – broke down in the delta lyrics
(in tallahatchie county)
in tallahatchie county
i found myself one day
drove past a private prison
with enough barbed wire to shed a human like a snake skin
covered the red, red dirt
it seems it’s made out of blood
my car broke down on the road
i had to trudge through the mud
in the middle of nowhere
bullet holes in each sign
the air was thicker than soup
and the sun beat down until i bent like a pine
i found an auto repair shop just a few miles from town
i walked in hesitantly and this is just what i found
empty dip cans on the floor
rifles and bucks on the wall
the man was talking on the phone in his office
had a confederate flag hat and some dirty overalls
i had a feeling he’d find out soon that i was from out of town
he had the accent of a man who was born here and then stuck around
i was scared as he saw me and approached with a frown
