| The radio is busted, down around my place | |
| Every tool is rusted, down around my place | |
| Creeks and rivers dried up, down around my place | |
| My woman's tears are cried up, down around my place | |
| And before there came a flood | |
| Some lost all, even blood | |
| Now the sun and wind have come and left no trace | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| These hunting grounds were hallowed, down around my place | |
| Exhausted fields lay fallow, down around my place | |
| Kingdoms come and crumble, down around my place | |
| My prayers are merely mumbles, down around my place | |
| And I put my faith in you | |
| Did you make that error too? | |
| Bound to fail that he might show his grace | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| They said you wouldn't believe | |
| What a paradise this was | |
| 'Til every Adam and Eve, Tom, Dick and Harry | |
| Started fighting for what he loved | |
| So, we fortified the ramparts | |
| And we built the mighty towers | |
| But it was plain to see, we never were free | |
| From the tyranny of the hour | |
| The family graves keep winkin', down around my place | |
| At every thought I'm thinkin', down around my place | |
| While the young ones crowd the table, down around my place | |
| Bitchin' about no cable, down around my place | |
| And my grandpa says, “Don't worry | |
| It's always the last one in who's in a hurry | |
| To try and slam the door in the next one's face” | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place |
| The radio is busted, down around my place | |
| Every tool is rusted, down around my place | |
| Creeks and rivers dried up, down around my place | |
| My woman' s tears are cried up, down around my place | |
| And before there came a flood | |
| Some lost all, even blood | |
| Now the sun and wind have come and left no trace | |
| Down around my place | |
| Down around my place | |
| These hunting grounds were hallowed, down around my place | |
| Exhausted fields lay fallow, down around my place | |
| Kingdoms come and crumble, down around my place | |
| My prayers are merely mumbles, down around my place | |
| And I put my faith in you | |
