tyler braden - secret (gravel drive sounds) lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s an old train track, goes back by the old mill
where them boys slip away every day to the whiskey still
they sell ‘shine by the bottle for a five every sat+rday
behind old red’s tavern, but you didn’t hear that from me
[chorus]
’cause we all act like we don’t know
where daddy got his money for a fishin’ pole
a zebco don’t come cheap in this day and time
and we all turn the other way
’cause we’ve got bills that we can’t pay
it’s a small town and we know how it goes
it’s just another secret that everybody knows
[verse 2]
old man rainey spends his days at the local store
he pays for a little, but sometimes leaves with more
but he’s always got a story ’bout his boy shipped overseas
and he hasn’t been the same since, so we let him be
[chorus]
and we all act like we don’t know
that he ain’t got nowhere to go
’cause he’s too proud to beg for a handout
and we all turn the other way
’cause there ain’t that much left to say
it’s a small town and we know how it goes
it’s just another secret that everybody knows
[bridge]
well, this simple life ain’t as easy as it sounds
’cause we’ve all got things that we don’t talk about
[verse 3]
like jenny had a baby last spring, now she’s all alone
’cause old man rainey’s boy, he ain’t comin’ home
now she drinks from a bottle she got behind old red’s
’cause she can’t get the sight of him leavin’ out of her head
[chorus]
and we all act like we don’t know
when she comes into sunday school
with a smilin’ baby boy in her arms
and we all turn the other way
say, “bless their hearts” and we just pray
it’s a small town and we know how it goes
it’s just another secret that everybody knows
it’s just another secret that everybody knows
