"Calico Creek" lyrics - STEPHEN WILSON JR.

Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo

Where we went swimming after Sunday school
Learned how to make break and bend the rules
Skipping class n 'slate rock n 'getting stoned
Not knowing any better's all we've ever known

[Chorus:]
Calico Creek runs deep through the holler and the hills
Washes our sins clean as it feeds them ole copper made stills
Word has a way of getting around
And every year some kid'll drown in Calico Creek

Hey, ooo
Hey, ooo
Hey, ooo
Hey, ooo

A little town where the old dogs turn mean
Full of pesticides and cans of kerosene
Where a stray cat can feel right at home
Not knowing any better's all we've ever known

[Chorus:]
Calico Creek runs deep through the holler and the hills
Washes our sins clean as it feeds them ole copper made stills
We're getting by on an empty tank
Found ourselves getting lost on the bank of Calico Creek
Calico Creek

Hey, ooo
Hey, ooo

Hey, hey!

[Bridge:]
Where the rope swings are rotten
Had our toes touching bottom
It'll be dry by July but if you walk down the sides we can find some Rapalas

Ay oh, ay oh
Ay oh, ay oh
Ay oh, ay oh
Ay oh, ay oh
Ay oh, ay oh

Hey, hey, hey

[Chorus:]
Calico Creek runs deep through the holler and the hills
Washes our sins clean as it feeds them ole copper made stills

Hey, hey
Calico Creek

Hey, hey
Calico Creek

Hey, hey
Calico Creek

Hey, hey
Calico Creek

Woo, woo, woo
