[00:00:01] Written by：Slaid Cleav

[00:00:05] There's an old dirt road just off route nine

[00:00:12] Fades into the lake at the low water line

[00:00:18] Sometimes I wander down that road alone

[00:00:24] Remembering the town that I once called home

[00:00:30] I grew up in the valley every neighbor a friend

[00:00:36] Until the modern world started creeping in

[00:00:43] One day came the lawyers with cash in hand

[00:00:49] They swore that our village would light up the land

[00:00:56] The dusky waters move cold and slow

[00:01:02] And the ghosts of a village still wander below

[00:01:08] Homesteads of families and friends forever more

[00:01:14] Haunting the valley below this sparkling shore

[00:01:21] Surrounding the valley was a painted red line

[00:01:27] Drawn by company men like marking a crime

[00:01:33] A silent reminder that all inside it must go

[00:01:39] Or be lost to the rising dead river's flow

[00:01:45] Some folks too the money started grinding gears

[00:01:52] While the rest of us held out twenty odd years

[00:01:58] We watched our town like a photograph fade

[00:02:04] As the company came to take it all away

[00:02:10] They tore down the church the schoolhouse burned

[00:02:17] They dug up the graves the wheels of progress turned

[00:02:23] They got Dutchie's store and Haven's pool hall

[00:02:29] When the dozers rolled it shattered us all

[00:02:36] The dusky waters move cold and slow

[00:02:41] And the ghosts of a village still wander below

[00:02:48] Homesteads of families and friends forever more

[00:02:54] Haunting the valley below this sparkling shore

[00:03:25] Old May Savage stayed as long as she could

[00:03:31] Her house on the hill towered over the flood

[00:03:38] It rose up alone in the dark of night

[00:03:44] It's face on the water the cold moonlight

[00:03:50] I shake off the memories on my lips a prayer

[00:03:57] Thanks for the grace and the beauty down there

[00:04:02] And while the porch lights glow all over the state

[00:04:09] There's nothing but darkness under the lake

[00:04:15] The dusky waters move cold and slow

[00:04:21] And the ghosts of a village still wander below

[00:04:27] Homesteads of families and friends forever more

[00:04:34] Haunting the valley below this sparkling shore

[00:04:40] They haunt the valley below this sparkling shore
