lyrics

We've all heard the one of the traveling salesman and the farmer's daughter
But, the punchline to that sick joke isn't funny anymore
Not after what they found this morning floating on the water
And you've been thumping bibles, true believer, selling Jesus door to door

I've never trusted city slickers carrying a briefcase
Neck tie, hard shoes, shiny and black
Sweet Susannah, she sure had a kind face
Kind heart, kind eyes, the kind that take you back

Was it you who held her hand
Was it you who kissed her cheek
And is it true you held her under
And took her walking to Griever Creek

Old men with shotguns, pitchforks and torches
Brothers and sisters selling off their farms
Mothers left crying, standing on their porches
Vigilante justice for the girl left dangling in your arms

Was it you...

She never knew that the creek was taboo
She was so naive in her youth
Now nobody swims on a dare or a whim
But, you'll hang from a limb for the truth

Was it you...
