Where I'm from
We don't like to talk about
What lies in the depths below
What they do
To murderers and thieves
Gone without a trace
Only few men know
No matter how low
How low you go
You can never reach the bottom
Of a deadman's pond
They'll put you in a barrel
Put you in a barrel
Roll you down the signal
Into Deadman's pond
Word to the wise
If you sneak a little whiskey now
You're flirting with outlaw life
They will come
Pull you from a slumber
Hang you in the narrows
In the middle of the night
No matter how low
How low you go
You can never reach the bottom
Of a deadman's pond
They'll put you in a barrel
Put you in a barrel
Roll you down the signal
Into Deadman's pond
When walkin' thin ice
On a cold black night
You better step light
And be careful with yourself
'Cause you might slip in
Where the dark begins
Then you're on a path
To the gateway to hell
No matter how low
How low you go
You can never reach the bottom
Of a deadman's pond
They'll put you in a barrel
Put you in a barrel
Roll you down the signal
Into Deadman's pond
No matter how low
How low you go
You can never reach the bottom
Of a deadman's pond
They'll put you in a barrel
Put you in a barrel
Roll you down the signal
Into Deadman's pond
Where I'm from
We don't like to talk about
What lies in the depths below
