Pineola (2017)

[Verse 1]
When Daddy told me what happened
I couldn't believe what he just said
Sonny shot himself with a .44
And they found him lyin' on his bed

[Verse 2]
I could not speak a single word
No tears streamed down my face
I just sat there on the living room couch
Starin' off into space

[Verse 3]
Mama and Daddy went over to the house
To see what had to be done
They took the sheets off of the bed
And they went to call someone

[Verse 4]
Some of us gathered at a friend's house
To help each othеr ease the pain
I just sat alonе in a corner chair
I couldn't say much of anything

[Verse 5]
We drove on out to the country
His friends all stood around
Subiaco Cemetery
That's where we laid him down

[Verse 6]
I saw his mama, she was standin' there
His sister, she was there too
I saw them look at us standin' around the grave
And not a soul they knew

[Verse 7]
Born and raised in Pineola
His mama believed in the Pentecost
She got the preacher to say some words
So his soul wouldn't be lost

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 8]
Some of us, we stood in silence
Some bowed their heads and prayed
I think I must've picked up a handful of dust
Then I let it fall over his grave
I think I must've picked up a handful of dust
Then I let it fall over his grave

[Guitar Solo]
