KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)

[Verse] Mountains whisper in my ear dark and deep Winds howl secrets that I can't keep Old dirt road cuts through the endless green Life ain't simple but it’s a machine [Verse] Whiskey breath and tobacco stains Rust on the truck like blood in my veins Chop the wood for the fire tonight KISS the truth in that bare firelight [Chorus] Keep it simple stupid let it breathe No need to tangle it in weeds Life ain't polished it’s raw and mean Keep it simple stupid let it scream [Verse] Moonshine drips from an old tin still Man’s got to work just to pay his will Heart of Appalachia beating slow KISS the ground where the wild things grow [Bridge] Steel strings hum like the ridge winds cry Sparrows fall but they learn to fly Smoke in the holler and coal in the veins KISS the broken and feel the pain [Chorus] Keep it simple stupid let it breathe No need to tangle it in weeds Life ain't polished it’s raw and mean Keep it simple stupid let it scream
