Waterdeep Album: Whole 'Nother Deal Track: Family In The Woods
Family In The Woods Lyrics By Don Chaffer
The stepson of the engineer
That drove the train you rode
Sold the railroad company
And the debt that you owed
And so now the new management
Comes a-knockin' at your door
It's pay up or eviction
There's no mercy anymore
CHORUS
Hey, hey
Who will remember me when I'm gone?
It ain't about how much you know
Or how long you been known
It's do you know the folks in charge
And how much do you own
It's bucks and bloody knuckles
It's contracts cut in steel
It's clauses sharp and pointed
And who's behind the wheel
So tell me that old story
Of the family in the woods
Momma cooked the crawdad
And Daddy traded goods
Tell me how when their boy died
They yelled and cried and prayed
Tell me how this very day
There's flowers on his grave
