Burnin' The Woodshed Down Lyrics

Summer sun is swinging low
Out here in the cotton row
Surrounded by my sorrow
Summer sun is swinging low

Ain�t no mother from a brother and me
Lost her back in 63
Drowned herself in a sea of Jim Bean
Ain�t no mother from a brother and me

Hook
So I�m burnin� the woodshed down
Going to burn it to the ground
Going to kick the ashes all around
I�m burnin� the woodshed down

Daddy beat me black and he beat me blue
Broke his hickory stick in two
God only knows what I�m bound to do
Daddy beat me black and he beat me blue

Hook
So I�m burnin� the woodshed down
Going to burn it to the ground
I�m going to kick the ashes all around
I�m burnin� the woodshed down

I�m going to show that man just want I mean
Pour out this can of kerosene
I�m going to toss a match into the breeze
I�m going to show that man just want I mean

Hook
Hey I�m burnin� the woodshed down
Going to burn it to the ground
I�m going to kick the ashes all around
I�m burnin� the woodshed down

I�m going to kick the ashes all around
I�m burnin� the woodshed down
