Dan Potthast - Perryville Lyrics

Before I was born my granma and my grandpa and my mother drove the car to Perryville with my two older brothers now all kids know that there's lots of fun things to do in summer but mom and grandma and grandpa had an idea like no other some kids go to the park and try to catch lightning bugs when it gets dark and some kids go to the baseball game and if they behave out for icecream but my two brothers got the treat of their life when they rolled into Perryville that summer night they got out of the car and went into a house of worship walked past some pews and ahead lay the purpose of their trip behind some glass below the alter a little girl was petrified as she received her 1st communion her father shot her between the eyes some kids go to the park and try to catch lightning bugs when it gets dark and some kids go to the baseball game and if they behave out for icecream but my two brothers got the treat of their life when they rolled into Perryville that summer night my mom said that the girl and her dress didn't look so good they were kind of rotten both my brothers shied away mom doesn't think they understood no they were to young to know that some kids go to the park and try to catch lightning bugs when it gets dark and some kids go to the baseball game and if they behave out for icecream but my two brothers got the treat of their life when they saw the rotting girl in front of their eyes
