Whitewash County Lyrics - The One - Elton John

Tonight it's hot down here 

I can almost smell the rain 

And I can almost taste the fear 

Behind your name 

Fans turning on the ceiling 

I feel sticky as a chili dog 

White boys howling in the evening 

On that hollow log 

Tall tales down the river 

Say we aim to bury the truth 

But the right hand just delivered 

Devil in a suit 

And he talks big in Whitewash County 

Talks sweet as sugar cane 

Got a past that's filled with lightning 

Got a future filled with rain

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Bug buzzing in an empty glass 

Fiddle scratching some lazy tune 

We're just some place that history passed 

New dust, new broom 

It's a high hot buttered moon 

He's got a shiny new wax face 

Swears the south's gonna rise again soon 

All over the place 

Tall tales down the river 

Say we aim to bury the truth 

The right hand just delivered 

Devil in a suit 

And he talks big in Whitewash County 

Talks sweet as sugar cane 

Got a past that is filled with lightning 

Got a future filled with rain 

And he talks big in Whitewash County 

Talks sweet as sugar cane 

Got a past that is filled with lightning 

Got a future filled with rain 

Rain down on Whitewash County 

Smell the air coming up the line 

Well you've changed your face so often 

But you never change your mind
