Scarecrow In The Garden Lyrics - Chris Stapleton

Well he came from Northern Ireland 

Searching for the free man's ground 

And he came to bet his fortune 

On a West Virginia plow 

He built a house of timber 

And raised a redhead son 

Then they worked the land together 

And prayed the rain would come 

There's a scarecrow in the garden 

That looks like Lucifer 

And I've been reading Revelations 

With my bare feet in the river

Well the redhead's son got older 

And took a brown eyed wife 

And the fields were green as dollars 

Cause the dirt was black as night 

I came in late September 

The youngest one of three 

And my sisters off and married 

So the land was left to me 

There's a scarecrow in the garden 

That looks like Lucifer 

And I've been reading Revelations 

With my bare feet in the river 

I know every single fencepost 

Every rock that goes around 

I've been staring at the red oak 

Where I know they'll lay me down

The fields ain't what they once were 

The rains just seem to flood 

And I've been thinking about that river 

Wondering how it turned to blood 

I've been sitting here all morning 

I was sitting here all night 

There's a bible in my left hand 

And a pistol in my right
