Michelle Shocked - Eddie lyrics

This boy named Eddie used to set the fields on fire

He's the only one I know who dared to name his desire

In a county where the dairy men all had milking machines

Eddie was the only one to separate the cream

Eddie and his father let the cows come home

They were out in the pasture in a late summer storm

When out of the blue, a lightning bolt came down

And where his father stood, smoking bones lay on the ground

His father's remains lie in the Kelsey Cemetery

But dogs like to dig up the bones that we bury

You can burn a field but you cannot burn the sky

That took your father from you in the twinkling of an eye

But you can burn a field and send clouds of black smoke

Up into the heavens, praying God will choke

And now you know the story and you know it was not me

Or my friend who did it, it was that boy named Eddie
