Lyrics to Barn Burner
She loved that 6 stall, 2 loft, Daddy bought cedar
Painted devil red, always had hay in the feeder
I's a damn good hand, had a plan to put a rock on hers
I poured a cup a caffeine for the chorin' one morning
Pulled the latch from the lock slid the barn doors open
She was birthday suitin' with a dude in her boots and spurs
What happened after that is still a blur
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
Well the neighbor called the sheriff and the sheriff called the station
By the time they got there there was nothing worth saving
Least that's what I heard at the Co-Op south of town
Then the deputy came to ask a few questions
Seemed like he wanted a confession
But I was sawin' logs not burnin' 'em, ask my hound
He just smiled and said it's kinda funny how it all went down 'cause
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
A wise man once said what goes around
Is always gonna come right back around
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
Alright boys, burn it down now
I got me a pocket full of matches
I got me a broken heart
When you got a pocket full a matches
A fire's bound to start
Painted devil red, always had hay in the feeder
I's a damn good hand, had a plan to put a rock on hers
I poured a cup a caffeine for the chorin' one morning
Pulled the latch from the lock slid the barn doors open
She was birthday suitin' with a dude in her boots and spurs
What happened after that is still a blur
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
Well the neighbor called the sheriff and the sheriff called the station
By the time they got there there was nothing worth saving
Least that's what I heard at the Co-Op south of town
Then the deputy came to ask a few questions
Seemed like he wanted a confession
But I was sawin' logs not burnin' 'em, ask my hound
He just smiled and said it's kinda funny how it all went down 'cause
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
A wise man once said what goes around
Is always gonna come right back around
She broke my heart then her barn burned down
Like one thing led to the other
Somebody let all her horses out
And then lit it up like a mother
Ain't saying I did, ain't saying I didn't
But I'm glad it's ashes now
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
She threw a pitchfork through my heart
Then her barn burned down
Alright boys, burn it down now
I got me a pocket full of matches
I got me a broken heart
When you got a pocket full a matches
A fire's bound to start
