My momma's momma's name was Annie Jane
She loved four kids through the good times and the pain
Grandpa and her never had a lot to spare
But if there was a need you could bet that they'd be there
They worked and farmed the land from dawn till dusk
Never had no time for a wanderlust
My grandma's brother Joe was a wealthy man Never trusted no bank to take it from his hand
He'd lock it up in his safe good and tight
Till his nephew J.D. came around one night
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark
Some Southern witch has got them under her spell
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark
Them boys down there are surely bound for hell
Them boys down there are surely bound for hell
He came from the other side of Fountain Creek
He never came around unless he had a need
J.D. did some work on his uncle's land
But he never was no count, wasn't worth a damn
He was the laziest cuss you'd ever seen
So him and his friends they cooked up a scheme
They robbed old Joe and shot him in the head
When the night was over Joe was laying there dead
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark Some Southern witch has got them under her spell
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark
Them boys down there are surely bound for hell
Them boys down there are surely bound for hell
Sometimes I think about it and I wanna holler
How a man could kill his own kin for a dollar
J.D. fell dead on the streets of Texas and I know it served him right
If I could have my way I'd dig him back up
And kill him again tonight
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark Some Southern witch has got him on her spell
Don't go crossin' Fountain Creek after dark
Them boys down there they surely went to hell
Them boys down there they surely went to hell
