It's Decoration Day
And I've a mind to roll a stone on his grave
And what would he say?
He'd say, "Keepin' me down, boy, won't keep you away"

It's Decoration Day
I knew the Hill boys would put him away
But my Daddy wasn't afraid
Said we'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day

But I never knew how it all got started
Problem with Hollan before we were born
And I don't know the name of the boy we tied down
And beat 'til he just couldn't walk anymore

But I know the caliber in Daddy's chest
I know what Hollan Hill drives
The state let him go, but I guess it was best
'Cause nobody needs all the Lawsons alive

Daddy said onе of the boys had come by
The lumbеrman's favorite son
He said, "Beat him real good, but don't dare let him die
And if you see Hollan Hill, run"

Well I said, "They ain't give us trouble before
That we ain't brought down on ourselves"
But a chain on my back and my ear to the floor
And I'll send all the Hill boys to Hell
I'll send all the Hill boys to Hell
Decoration Day
And I've a mind to go spit on his grave
And I got a family in Mobile Bay
Don't bother me, it ain't marked anyway

'Cause I got dead brothers in Lauderdale South
And I got dead brothers in East Tennessee
My daddy got shot right in front of his house
He had no one to fall on but me

It's Decoration Day
And I've a mind to go spit on his grave
If I'd been a Hill I'd have put him away
And I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day
I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day
I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day
