Stop The Clock

(album: Twenty On High - 2023)

You know the road I grew up on
It was chert rock dirt and old dog bones
Red dust covered everything we owned
Painted the whole damn place

The house that we called home
It was a single-wide it was a corner stone
We all ate whatever daddy'd grown
Or killed to fill our plates

These days I'd kill ten men a week
For a minute as a kid on Kornegay
Time's a bitch I wish I'd never known
Stop the clock and take me home
Time's a bitch I was I'd never known
Stop the clock and take me home

If there's one thing that I've learned
You don't always get the things you've earned
Some bridges built end up bridges burned
Then you learn to walk through the flames

That nowhere town still bears my name
In the bark of a pine down Hermitage Lane
Time went on and everything changed
Time went on and everything changed

These days I'd kill ten men a week
For a minute as a kid on Kornegay
Time's a bitch I wish I'd never known
Stop the clock and take me home
These days I'd kill ten men a week
For a minute as a kid on Kornegay
Time's a bitch I wish I'd never known
Stop the clock and take me home
Time's a bitch I wish I'd never known
Stop the clock and take me home

Please won't someone stop

You know the road I grew up on
It was chert rock dirt and old dog bones
Red dust covered everything we owned
Painted the whole damn place
