- Six Feet of Backroad

Intro

Verse 1 There's a stretch past the feed store, unlit Where the county quit patchin' the pits The map calls it nothin', just a line It's the road that took what was mine Same road they let a killer keep drivin' Same nine miles where she quit survivin' Funny how a road keeps what it's fed Takes the living and don't mark the dead

Chorus Six feet of backroad, nobody knows Where a bad thing goes when the bad blood flows The county quit lookin', the county forgot Some graves ain't marked and some roads don't talk

Verse 2 They found his truck out there one fall Doors wide open, no note at all Sheriff shrugged, said men just leave Some roads give, and some roads receive

Chorus Six feet of backroad, nobody knows Where a bad thing goes when the bad blood flows The county quit lookin', the county forgot Some graves ain't marked and some roads don't talk

Bridge I ain't sayin' I know what happened there I'm just sayin' the road and I both don't care It took the thing I loved for free Only fair it takes somethin' back for me

Outro Some roads don't talk. Neither do I.
