lyrics

With shaky hands and sweaty palms
My head is spinnin’ round
Put the body in the trunk
Hightail it out of town

Tried to hide ‘im in the silo
But that would’ve tipped my hand
Should’ve come clean from the start
But who’d understand

Would’ve spent the rest of my life
In a prison cell
I’m not a killer born
Though I may be damned to hell

What will my poor mama say
If they raise the bridge over the bay

The Coyote Roadhouse
On Kangaroo Lake
The identification
I gave them was fake

A vacant old barn
The body it was found
Chopped up by a chainsaw
Scattered around

I ain’t givin’ in
I ain’t lookin’ back
I’ve managed this time
To slip through the cracks

What will my poor mama say
If they raise the bridge over the bay

The pickup truck I stole
Couldn’t top 45
Pedal to the floor
For the Door County line

Headin’ into Sturgeon
Her harbor in my sights
Before me was the rising bridge
Behind me blue lights

What will my poor mama say
They’ve raised the bridge over the bay

What will my poor mama say
They’ve raised the bridge over the bay
