The Tale of Dale Video (MV)

They said he came from the south-side of town
Meaner than a treed-up coon
Well he rode into town three times a year
Buying corn for his liquor still

The Law they'd leave Dale alone
Said He'd been through hell
He made his liv'n mash'n corn
Sell'n from his liquor still

Chorus
The said he was a hero
And he was a family man
It changed that night He lost a son and a wife
To a gun in a rounders hand To a gun in a rounders hand

My dad would tell me the stories
Of when the school caught on fire
He said Dale rushed into the burning building
Saved every child

Down there at the interstate
When a car drove off the bridge
They say Dale jumped into the icy water
Saved the momma and her kid

We ain't seen Dale in a long, long time
Some say he passed away
Cause there's a fresh piece of dirt in the cemetery
That marks an unmarked grave

Now out there in those woods at night
When the moon goes away
You can smell the smell of that ol' corn mash
Cook'n in his liquor still
