Just for the record let's get the story straight
|
Me and Uncle Tom were fishin' it was gettin' pretty late
|
Out on a cypress limb above the wishin' well
|
Where they say it got no bottom say it take you down to Hell
|
|
Over in the bushes and off to the right
|
Two men talking in the pale moonlight
|
Sherriff John Brady and Deputy Hedge
|
Haulin' two limp bodies down to the Waters' Edge
|
|
I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's Cabin oh yea
|
I know a secret that I just can't tell
|
|
They didn't see me and Tom in the tree
|
Neither one believin' what the other could see
|
Tossed in the bodies let em sink on down
|
to the bottom of the well where they'd never be found
|
|
I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's Cabin oh yea
|
I know a secret that I just can't tell
|
I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's Cabin
|
I know who put the bodies in the wishing well
|
|
[Guitar Solo]
|
|
Soon as they were gone me and Tom got down
|
Prayin real hard that we wouldn't make a sound
|
Runnin through the woods back to Uncle Tom's shack
|
Where the full moon shines through the rooftop cracks
|
|
Oh my God, Tom, who are we going to tell?
|
The Sherriff, he belongs in a prison cell
|
Keep your mouth shut, that's what we're going to do
|
Unless you want to wind up in the wishing well too
|
|
I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's Cabin
|
I know a secret that I just can't tell
|
I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's Cabin
|
Know who put the bodies, know who put the bodies
|
In the wishin well
|
Oh yea
