IN THE MORNING

[Intro]
(Haunted Mound)
Ah-ah-ah, Buck Buck
(Ha-Ha-Ha-Hauntaholics, real Haunted Mound) Ah

[Chorus]
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Layin' down, put the dog back to bed (Back to bed)
Euthanized, let the dog get some rest (Some rest)
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Hit the hay, burn the barn, go and call it a day (Ah-ah)
Garden hose, exhaust pipe, duct-taped to your face

[Verse 1]
Safe and sound, wait it out, burn the evidence
I'm layin' low and stayin' down until it passes
Broken hanging gate, swingin' off the latches
Burning barn, the grass is black in patches
Dark hours of the evening closin' in
Wildfires burnin' over way back where I should've been
I strike a match and then ignite it when my day begins
I stare into thousand yards, I'm getting sick again

[Chorus]
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Layin' down, put the dog back to bed (Back to bed)
Euthanized, let the dog get some rest (Some rest)
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Hit the hay, burn the barn, go and call it a day (Ah-ah)
Garden hose, exhaust pipe, duct-taped to your face

[Verse 2]
On the front porch, watching the world end
Took your soul, written off, mark my covenant
From the pastures, I hear the livestock
Don't go in the lake, you can drown there
Rites of passage, trail walkin' through the county
Strayin' off the beaten track, they'll never find your body
Found footage underground, undisclosed location
Facedown floatin' like a needle in a basin

[Chorus]
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Layin' down, put the dog back to bed (Back to bed)
Euthanized, let the dog get some rest
I'm still gone early in the morning (Morning)
Buck eternal, do not ever mourn me (Mourn me)
Hit the hay, burn the barn, go and call it a day (Ah)
Garden hose, exhaust pipe, duct-taped to your face

[Outro]
Morning
Mourn me
Ah-ah
