letra de the woodshed - murder by death

Loading...

he went out to the woodshed
to find a log or two to split
it was five below and in the moonlit snow
he followed my footprints

when he cracked the door something was out of place
and the woodshed wasn’t the same
i lay inside on a bed of straw
and when he looked at me he could taste the shame

i said, “i didn’t mean no harm, mister
just needed someplace to lay my head
if you gimme a minute to gather my things
i’ll be happy to find some other place instеad”

and as i looked at him, he looked at mе
invited me inside, gave me somethin’ to eat

he said, “a man is just a man
no matter how much dough he’s got in his hands
you got to take a stand
help your fellow man
you got to help out when you can”

later i went down to the courthouse
to settle money that i owed
there was a woman lyin’ in the grass
wearin’ rags for clothes
she slept beneath the city’s christmas tree
sheltered by its boughs
and i’ll be d-mned if she belongs there
shakin’ in the cold

she said, “can you fetch me some water, mister?”
that’s all she asked
“something to warm me up
something that’ll last”

you got to take that cup, fill it up
it warms your soul when you fill that hole
yeah, take that cup and fill it up
bring kindness wherever you go
yeah, you got to take that cup and fill it up
bring kindness wherever you go

yeah, take that cup and fill it up
bring kindness wherever you go
yeah, take that cup and fill it up
bring kindness wherever you go
