Bardstown Lyrics by Mary Kutter

Bootlegger’s Bible - EP

2024

[Verse 1]
In the name of our Father, Amen
Black suits in the pews with bowed heads
He sings out "It is well with my soul"
But it sounds like a hymn he don't know
'Cause it ain't a Sunday
It's that kinda one day
That he never dreamed would ever come around
Throws a rose as the box goes in the ground

[Chorus]
Too sad to cry
Too mad to pray
You'd move all of Heaven and Earth just to take their place
And time, yeah, it heals
But not for all wounds
'Cause for some souls their time comes way too soon
Grief is a flood
From here on out
It's raining like hell here in Bardstown

[Verse 2]
After all the respects have been paid
That house is as quiet as a grave
There's a room that he'll have to pass by
Baseball bat on the bed like a shrine
It's gonna kill him to the day that he dies

[Chorus]
Too sad to cry
Too mad to pray
You'd move all of Heaven and Earth just to take their place
And time, yeah, it heals
But not for all wounds
'Cause for some souls their time comes way too soon
Grief is a flood
From here on out
It's raining like hell here in Bardstown

[Bridge]
Tell me, what kinda God
Would go make an Earth
Where a father puts his baby in the dirt?

[Chorus]
Too sad to cry
Too mad to pray
You'd move all of Heaven and Earth just to take their place
And time, yeah, it heals
But not for all wounds
'Cause for some souls their time comes way too soon
Grief is a flood
From here on out
It's raining like hell here in Bardstown
Raining like hell here in Bardstown
