Standing in the dead grass Off of my backyard I'm looking at them oak trees And my old barn All I've ever had Locked up in here My love and my hate My hope and my fear Friends and lovers People from the past They're all going down In a mighty blast I light a match Let it to the ground And this old barn Is going down I light a match I set the fire free And this old barn Go down with me My boots and my saddle Well I don't need them no more All left behind When old barn doors And the lord and the devil Watching over me Can go to hell and heaven 'Cause I was born free I light a match Let it to the ground And this old barn Is going down I light a match I set the fire free And this old barn Go down with me ♪ And the lord and the devil Watching over me Can go to hell and heaven 'Cause I was born free I light a match Let it to the ground And this old barn Is going down I light a match I set the fire free And this old barn Go down with me
