lirik lagu the wildmans - autumn 1941

i was a girl in the hills of catawba county
fall ’41, another war about to break
i’d been raised up from a star
by a mother with a gentle heart
fifteen candles on my birthday cake
my daddy, he was born a free bleeder
like the kings of england, was a story mama told
there was some defect in his genes
he might have handed down to me
he passed when i was only nine days old
mama cried out, “child, so many are coming”
all over back, and hide up in the woods
they’ve got fancy plans and grand designs
so cold, the feeble, blurred lines
they mean the likes of you and me no good

ma’am we’re well aware of your husband’s history
we’ve come to end the score of this disease
i heard all the words of those well dressed man
one with the clipboard in his hand
that’s when i knew those men had come for me

[instrumental break]

i never in my whole life seen my mama
stiffen up her spine and stand her ground
i watched her slender body start to shake
angry as a rattlesnake
told those men just get on back to town
there, 2:45, leaning
she stood there boldly in the mountain breeze
daddy’s heirloom 12~gauge shotgun glinting in the silver sun
c~cked and pointed just above their knees
i’ll never forget that autumn day
when mama chased those men away
today you turn 15 my, precious daughter
the very age i was when mama made her stand
by god, with you i’ve been blessed with your grandma’s righteousness
a mother’s love defies the arrogance of man

i’ll never forget that autumn day
when mama chased those men away
don’t ever forget that autumn day
when mama chased those men away
