Child of the Creek

Life's of book with missing pages
Where chapters fade from time to time
They say I'm rough around the edges
Because I could never walk the straight line

I love curves
I love back roads
Where the dust can make your eyes close

Summer days up in that holler
Sweat just pouring down my cheek
There's nothing cooler than that water
I'm a child of the creek

Growing up I faced some demons
But I had angels by my side
They would pray for me and healing
I would smile and they would cry

I would park
On them back roads
Where the music makes your eyes close

Summer days up in that holler
Sweat just pouring down my cheek
Mamaw bathed us in that water
Yea I'm a child of the creek

My Papaw was a man of God
The Holy Ghost was in his soul
Love was simple life was hard
We lived and died by the coal

I'll take my last breath in this holler
Sweat just pouring down my cheek
I was baptized in that water
I'm a child of the creek
Yea I'm a child of the creek

Run run run child
Run run child

In the dirt
On a back road
I'll be smiling when my eyes close
