If The Walls Could Talk In The Ghost Town

Dark Country Blues

Lyrics

If the walls could talk in this Ghost Town
They would tell you why everyone left
Honest men just dying to leave
Ditching liars claiming they can raise the dead

Its the grave site where love goes to die
Drenched in bitter hate from words left unsaid
Every moment is a dark stormy night
This be where ghosts reside but it's sure not home in their head

Decrepit schools house aches of children crossed over
Sulking in overgrown shrubs all alone
Graves of babes in rows do hover
Who never learned to read not even a headstone

Crippling poverty now embodied by the closed bank now entangled in moss
Next door to the general store where only desperate rats for years fed
To starvation lives were lost

Father's and husbands did fail
Mother's and wives skipped town found love elsewhere
Abandoned children cried to ghosts from their night mare's wasting away with no one else there

The towns folk could not lie their way out to slip past the final judge for their countless sins unatoned
A monument frozen in time there only legacy the ruins of their former abode

The final deceased residents never buried
two that were just left for dead
One wallowed in filth and hunger till their last breath wasted away in their bed
One now just dry bones on a porch swing had put a cold steel barrel to their head
