Tearing up the road kill
Looking for my long lost daughter
Outside the vineyard gate
Across from the homestead motel
Sifting through the gold
Just to find the cleanest water
To accompany the [ ]
At the bottom of my well

Well I’m draining the locks
I’m flooding the fields
Trying not to shake a rock
As I’m kicking up my heels
You hear your same story
Somewhere down the line
But this war never stops
Your peace of mind

Touching all those wires
That are dangling off the shingles
The roof is caving in
By winter it be fixed
The leaks [ ] flies
And pests that intermingle
Yearning for another body
Just to be tricked

Well I’m draining the locks
I’m flooding the fields
Trying not to shake a rock
As I’m kicking up my heels
You hear your sad story
Somewhere down the line
This war never stops
For your peace of mind

[ … ]themselves
Are waiting to take you under
The gravel down the road
Makes for the sound way to get home
There aint nothing the heat
Before the clapping of the thunder
There aint nothing like a face
With its funny little poem

Well I’m draining the locks
I’m flooding the fields
Trying not to shake and shock
As I’m kicking up my heels
You hear your sad story
Somewhere down the line
This war never stops
For your peace of mind
