we'll all soon be dead - this way to the egress lyrics
it was 1890 when my brother lost his leg
and his wife had to pull him through the snow
a slave boy came outside and yelled through the wind
your mothers dead, she left us in the night
fever caught her dead but i stowed away her corpse
i left her for the wolves out in the back
they’re strippin’ down her flesh, all that’s left is bleached*white bone
well, at least they’ll leave us ‘lonе one more night
the pitchforks in thе hay and we’ll live another day
as long as we can get through one more night
this land’s getting rotten and i have to shake my head
‘cause the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
in 1891 i lost another son
i guess the cold just froze his bones to death
i never heard a peep from his little sister weepin’
oh, she knows that she has to save her breath
the cold came out one night
and nipped her little toes
she said “pa, my feets is turnin’ black.”
i turned to the wall
and laid my head and bawled
come on girl, let’s go out and fetch my axe
the pitchforks in the hay and we’ll live another day
as long as we can get through one more night
this land’s getting rotten and i have to shake my head
‘cause the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
in 1893 the cold just hit its peak
i guess that all that’s left out here is me
i’ve crawled up into madness
an’ i’m waitin’ to meet death
i’ll gladly shake his hand and introduce myself
oh, hang me in the barn
or throw me to the wolves
to be eaten alive at least i’d feel their warmth
‘cause there’s no loneliness like sittin’ in my p*ss
and wishin’ that i’d died long ago
the pitchforks in the hay and we’ll live another day
as long as we can get through one more night
this land’s getting rotten and i have to shake my head
‘cause the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
the pitchforks in the hay and we’ll live another day
as long as we can get through one more night
this land’s getting rotten and i have to shake my head
‘cause the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
‘cause the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
yeah, the cattle’s sick and we’ll all soon be dead!
