歌词
作曲 : Chris Housman/Nell Maynard/Tommy Kratzert
Grew up at the crossroads
of a preacher's daughter and a farmer’s wife
She thought she found
a one woman man to love her ‘til the day she dies
But 30 years in, done raising his kids,
and keeping his front porch swept
She found a box full of letters,
he shoulda been better at hiding those secrets he kept
He finally found one hole that he can’t get out
‘Cause she’s got a shovel and a whole lotta ground
She goes way out where the lord can’t see
She ain’t weeping under those willow trees now
He’s getting what he had coming
She’s serving that backwoods justice
By the time that the sun comes up
He won’t be the only one hidin’ somethin’
She could take the beatings
and the cheating hell that he put her through
But everything hit different
when she read ‘bout the other folks he left black and blue
So on Sunday night, made his chicken pot pie,
and she threw a little something else in
By the time it got dark she was rolling up a tarp,
his cold heart won’t be beating again
‘Cause he’s found one hole that he can’t get out
‘Cause she’s got a shovel and a whole lotta ground
She goes way out where the lord can’t see
She ain’t weeping under those willow trees now
He’s getting what he had coming
She’s serving that backwoods justice
By the time that the sun comes up
He won’t be the only one hidin’ somethin’
Nobody wonders, nobody asks
Nobody’s prayin’ that devil comes back
Nobody wonders, nobody asks
Nobody wonders, nobody asks
Nobody’s prayin’ that devil comes back
Nobody wonders, nobody asks
He finally found one hole that he can’t get out
‘Cause she’s got a shovel and a whole lotta ground
She goes way out where the lord can’t see
She ain’t weeping under those willow trees now
He’s getting what he had coming
She’s serving that backwoods justice
By the time that the sun comes up
He won’t be the only one hidin’ somethin’
No he won’t be the only one hidin’ somethin’
Now he ain’t the only one hidin’ somethin’
