Barton Hollow Lyrics


Ooh, ooh
Ooh, oohI'm a dead man walking here
That's the least of all my fears
Ooh, underneath the waterIt's not Alabama clay
Gives my trembling hands away
Ooh, please forgive me, fatherAin't going back to Barton Hollow
Devil gonna follow me 'ever I go
Won't do me no good, washing in the river
Can't no preacher man save my soulDid that full moon force my hand?
Or that unmarked hundred grand?
Ooh, underneath the water
Ooh, please forgive me, fatherMiles and miles in my bare feet
Still can't lay me down to sleep
If I die before I wake
I know the Lord, my soul won't take
Ooh, oohI'm a dead man walking
I'm a dead man walkingYou keep walking, running, running for miles
Keep walking, running, running for miles

Keep walking, running, running for milesAin't going back to Barton Hollow
Devil gonna follow me 'ever I go
Won't do me no good, washing in the river
Can't no preacher man save my soul

The Civil Wars consists of John Paul White, hailing from Florence, AL and Joy Williams, originally from Santa Cruz, CA, but now residing in East Nashville. The duo’s chance meeting fueled an immediate songwriting chemistry and creative synergy. Their second show ever, performed at a sold out Eddie’s Attic, was recorded and released as a free digital album.

Barton Hollow, the full-length debut from The Civil Wars, was released February 1, 2011 (Sensibility Music). According to the Barton Hollow Songfacts, it debuted at #1 on iTunes' album sales chart and at #12 on the Billboard 200. The album came on the heels of a breakout year for the duo, whose remarkably successful free/live album has been downloaded over 100,000 times. Additionally, their 2009 four song EP, Poison & Wine, debuted at #4 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Top Albums chart. The EP’s title track and first single was played in full on “Grey’s Anatomy” (episode 609, "New History") and its accompanying music video has been viewed over 1,411,229 times on YouTube.
