Letra de Murder In The Red Barn
There was a murder in the red barn A murder in the red barnThe trees are bending over and the cows are lying down The autumn's taking over, you can hear the buckshot hounds The watchman said to Reba the the loon Was it pale at Manzanita, was it blind Bob the coon?Pin it on a drifter, they sleep beneath the bridge One plays the violin and sleeps inside a fridge There was a murder in the red barn Murder in the red barnSomeone's crying in the woods, someone's burying all his clothes Now Slam the Crank from Wheezer slept outside last night and froze Roadkill has its seasons just like anything There's possums in the autumn and there's farm cats in the springThere was a murder in the red barn Murder in the red barnNow thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house Or covet thy neighbor's wife But for some murder's the only door Through which they enter lifeNow they surrounded the house, they smoked him out and took him off in chains The sky turned black and bruised and months of heavy rains Now the ravens nest in the rotted roof of Chenoweth's old place And no one's asking Cal about that scar upon his face'Cause there's nothing strange about an axe with bloodstains in the barn There's always some killing you've got to do around the farm A murder in the red barn Murder in the red barnThe woods will never tell what sleeps beneath the trees Or what's buried beneath a rock or hiding in the leaves 'Cause roadkill has its seasons just like anything It's possums in the autumn and it's farm cats in the springA murder in the red barn Murder in the red barnNow a lady can't do nothing without folks' tongues wagging Is that blood on the tree or is it autumn's red blaze? When the ground is soft for digging and the rain will bring all this gloom There's nothing wrong with a lady drinking alone in her roomBut there was a murder in the red barn A murder in the red barn There was a murder in the red barn A murder in the red barnThere was a murder in the red barn A murder in the red barn
