Ain't Enough Rocks (feat. Derek Trucks)

歌詞

She grew up hidin' bruises Thinkin' that was love Bourbon on his breath Poison in his blood A wolf in daddy's clothing He'd sneak into her room While that small town was sleepin' God she wished she was too She got a little older But so did little sister One night the ugly truth Came out in a whisper And that whisper was a trigger Only had to pull it once They wrapped him in that bedroom rug And threw him in the trunk That angry sky was thunderin' As they drove him to the Cumberland Tied some river stone to him And let the body drop There ain't enough rocks To drown that pain Ain't enough water To sink that shame Might've broke her heart Couldn't break her soul But dead ain't dead enough Sometimes you know Ain't enough rocks Sheriff knockin' on the front door Third day not clockin' in Girls said he went on a bender They hadn't seen him since Cops blamed it on his liver So they never drug the river Those girls don't even shiver When they're fishin' off that dock There ain't enough rocks To drown that pain Ain't enough water To sink that shame Might've broke her heart Couldn't break her soul But dead ain't dead enough Sometimes you know Ain't enough rocks Some crimes don't deserve a jury Or a penitentiary Or the possibility of parole In a quarter century Sometimes the only cure For a certain kind of problem Is the right amount of limestone To keep it at the bottom
