Bayou Firestride

(yeah) (hmmmm) Sun goes down behind the cypress tree

Low ground mud pulling at my knee

Keep the wick burning in the dark

All it takes is a single spark

Creek is creeping past the stone

Leave that trouble down to the bone

Stomp the floor and let it shake

We got ground they cannot break

Black water rising at the door

(oh yeah)

We ain't running anymore

Iron kettle singing on the coals

Heavy hammer weighing on our souls

Dusty boots upon the timber floor

Standing guard right against the storm

Feel the floorboards start to give

Got to fight if we wanna live

Stomp the floor and let it shake

We got ground they cannot break

Black water rising at the door

(no,

no) We ain't running anymore

(shake it down!)

Shake it

Let it shake

Ain't running no

more

(no more)
