Uncle Tom's Cabin

Just for the record, let's get the story straight

Me and Uncle Tom were fishing, it was getting pretty late

Out on a cypress limb above the wishin' well

Where they say is got no bottom, say it take you down to hell

Over in the bushes and off to the right

Come two men talking in the pale moonlight

Sheriff John Brady and Deputy Hedge

Hauling two limp bodies down to the water's edge

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah

I know a secret that I just can't tell

They didn't see me and Tom in the tree

Neither one believing what the other could see

Tossed in the bodies, let 'em sink on down

To the bottom of the well where they'd never be found

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah

I know a secret that I just can't tell

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin

I know a secret that I just can't tell

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin

Know who put the bodies in the wishin' well

Soon as they were gone, me and Tom got down

Praying real hard that we wouldn't make a sound

Running through the woods back to Uncle Tom's shack

Where the full moon shines through the roof tile cracks

Oh my God, Tom, who are we gonna tell?

The sheriff man belongs in a prison cell

Keep your mouth shut, that's what we're gonna to do

Unless you wanna wind up in the wishin' well too

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin

I know a secret that I just can't tell

I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin, oh yeah

I know a secret that I just can't tell

Oh, I know a secret down at Uncle Tom's cabin

Know who put the bodies, know who put the bodies

In the wishin' well, oh yeah
