burnt the sawmill down - aaron lewis lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
dirt road, georgia, childhood days
a sawmill way of life
where i grew up to love a rich girl
who could never be my wife
and the roses near their mansion
on a cool, southern ground
she cut a memory into mine
but i had to leave that town
dirt poor, backwoods, i was raised
now the lawman’s comin’ ’round
mama said, “i raised a good boy
but he burnt the sawmill down”

[chorus]
it’s been years since i left georgia
and i left there on the run
they say her daddy’s still in a rage
over what i done
but he shot at me for lovin’ her
thought he run me outta town
but i hid until the mornin’ light
then i burned his sawmill down

[verse 2]
i still love that long-haired girl
there’s a price tag on my head
her daddy owns the county law
and if i go back there, i’m dead
so i just dream of southern roses
and miss the love we found
lord, i wish i’d never been born poor
or burnt the sawmill down

[chorus]
it’s been years since i left georgia
and i left there on the run
they say her daddy’s still in a rage
over what i done
he shot at me for lovin’ her
thought he run me outta town
but i hid until the mornin’ light
then i burned his sawmill down

[outro]
dirt poor, backwoods, i was raised
now the lawman’s comin’ ’round
mama said, “i raised a good boy
but he burnt the sawmill down”
mama said, “i raised a good boy
but he burnt the sawmill down”
