Scarecrow stood like Jesus Christ while the rain came down as ice
And froze his face into a twisted smile
Black crow perched atop the barn
Shaking trying to keep warm
Watching Mr. Scarecrow all the while
Black Crow knows that scarecrow dying his face is solid frozen
And hell be too if he cannot get warmer
Before this mighty mean ice storm
Scarecrow kept this wealthy farm
The pride of Mr. Jebediah Farmer
Now Jebediahs gone away because the bills could not get paid
He flew away on bullet bound for Jesus
But still the icy rain comes down
Before long Scarecrows gonna drown
Unless the wind first tears him into pieces
Black Crow stands on solid steal looking for a solid meal
Scarecrows smiling saying Come and get some
I have nothing to defend
And I will never live again
Everythings been pissed away to heaven
Scarecrow thought of Farmer Jeb and the bullet he put in his head
All because he could never live a poor man
Now Scarecrows feeling awful cold
Half as proud and twice as bold
And curses Jeb as not worth a good goddamn
Find a man so rich with power but underneath is such a coward
To take his life but leave his only begotten scarecrow
He left me here to shoo the crows
From all the crops that are long since froze
An ornament among the ice and snow
Black crow listens from the barn to his old enemy of the farm
Cause sometimes you just need someone to listen
Then he flies closer to his foe
Who keeps the food from the hungry crows
Knowing there is no more food it is all frozen
Black Crow sees the scarecrows smile shocked at his irreverent style
Because scarecrows are so often stern and callous
Black crow says to his old enemy
Do you have any thing for me?
Your smile makes a starving bird so jealous
Scarecrow says The game is done I guess you could say that you won
But soon you may follow me to heaven"
Black Crow says My dear old foe
That kingdom is far too cold
I was cast out once and I do not want back in
